SSC CHT 2025 First Round Allocation out (5 Nov): 532 recommended, sliding and ID check on 18 Nov

532 candidates have been provisionally recommended in the First Round of Tentative Allocation (FRTA) of the SSC Combined Hindi Translators Examination (CHTE), 2025, in a notice dated 5 November 2026. Out of 2724 candidates who submitted post preferences, they are called for Identity Verification (IV) and the sliding process on 18 November 2026 at the cities of the concerned Regional Offices. The IV slip can be downloaded from 13 November 2026 (5:00 PM) on ssc.gov.in, and a candidate who does not attend in person will be treated as absent and left out of the final result.

What has SSC announced in the CHT 2025 first round allocation?

The Staff Selection Commission has issued a notice dated 5 November 2026 on the Declaration of First Round of Tentative Allocation of the Combined Hindi Translators Examination, 2025 (CHTE-2025). The notice says a total of 532 candidates have been provisionally recommended for Identity Verification (IV) on the basis of merit-cum-preference of posts submitted online and the overall performance in Paper-I and Paper-II.

This is a tentative allocation, not the final result. The candidates must still pass the sliding process and identity verification, and only then will the Commission declare the final result. The notice is on the SSC website, ssc.gov.in.

How did the exam reach this stage?

The notice gives the path of the examination in short.

• Paper-I result was declared on 4 November 2025. In it, 3642 candidates were shortlisted for Paper-II.
• Paper-II was conducted on 14 December 2025.
• The Paper-II result to shortlist candidates for the PET/PST for the post of Sub Inspector (Hindi Translator) in the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) was declared on 4 June 2026.
• Option-cum-preference was taken online from candidates who appeared in Paper-II, from 8 September 2026 (23:00 hrs) to 11 September 2026 (23:00 hrs).
• A total of 2724 candidates submitted their preferences online and were considered for further selection.

The First Round of Tentative Allocation was done as per the examination Notice dated 5 June 2025, the Corrigendum dated 18 July 2025, the Addendum dated 27 June 2026 and the Notice dated 3 March 2026 on the sliding mechanism.

What are the minimum qualifying marks and tie rules?

As per Para 16.3 of the Notice of Examination, the Commission fixed the minimum qualifying marks in Paper-II as follows.

Category	Minimum qualifying marks in Paper-II
UR	30%
OBC / EWS	25%
All other categories	20%

If two or more candidates have the same score, merit is decided by applying these criteria one after another until the tie is resolved: (i) total marks in Paper-II, (ii) total marks in Paper-I, (iii) date of birth, with the older candidate placed higher, and (iv) alphabetical order of names. These rules come from Para 17 of the Notice of Examination.

How many candidates are recommended in each category?

The notice gives this category-wise break-up of the 532 candidates recommended for IV.

Category	Vacancies	Candidates recommended
UR	228	228
SC	82	82
ST	38	38
OBC	137	137
EWS	47	47
Total	532	532

For horizontal categories the notice lists OH 3, HH 2, VH 5 and PwD Others 2. The notice also says that the total includes 6 SC, 71 OBC and 28 EWS candidates who qualified at the Unreserved (UR) standard. In other words, every vacancy reported in the first round has a recommended candidate against it.

Which posts and departments are covered?

The notice lists 29 post codes with their ministries or departments.

• J01 to J24: Junior Translator, Junior Hindi Translator or Junior Translation Officer posts (Group B Non-Gazetted) in departments such as Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Defence (AFHQ, Navy, Air HQ, CGDA, DGDE), Central Passport Office, CBIC, CBDT, Jal Shakti, MSME, Mines, Science and Technology, Railway Board, Registrar General of India, Department of Official Language, DGFT, Department of Atomic Energy, TRAI and Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
• J25: Sub Inspector (Hindi Translator), Group B Non-Gazetted, in the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). This is the biggest block in the table, with 126 UR, 47 SC, 23 ST, 84 OBC and 31 EWS vacancies shown as filled.
• S26 to S29: Senior Translator or Senior Translation Officer posts in AFHQ, the Office of the Development Commissioner (MSME), the Central Translation Bureau and Integrated Headquarters of the Ministry of Defence (Army).

The notice also marks a few vacancies with an asterisk as allocated against horizontal vacancy, for example J14 UR and S27 SC.

What were the marks of the last selected candidates?

The notice gives, for each post code and category, the total marks and the Paper-I and Paper-II marks of the last selected candidate. A few examples for the largest block, J25 (CRPF Sub Inspector, Hindi Translator), are below.

Category	Vacancies filled	Total marks of last selected	Paper-II	Paper-I
UR	126	215	84	131
SC	47	184.5	67	117.5
ST	23	162.5	73	89.5
OBC	84	197.75	73.5	124.25
EWS	31	197.25	74	123.25

These are the marks of the last candidate selected in the first round, not an official cut-off for the final result. Other posts show much higher last-selected marks in UR, for example 262.75 for S26 UR and 256.75 for J22 UR. Check the full table in the notice for your post code and category.

What is the sliding process and what must selected candidates do?

Under Para 16.17 of the Notice of Examination, the Commission introduced a sliding mechanism by its notice dated 3 March 2026. The notice explains that it aims to fill vacancies as fully as possible in an examination cycle, give fair merit-based chances, and cut down vacancies left unfilled when selected candidates do not join. It sets up a single round of reallocation for unused vacancies.

What to do:

1. Check the SSC notice and confirm that your candidature is in the recommended list.
2. From 13 November 2026 (5:00 PM), log in through the designated login module on ssc.gov.in and download your sliding process or IV slip.
3. Attend the sliding process and identity verification in person on 18 November 2026 at the city of the concerned Regional Office.
4. Read the Notice dated 8 April 2026 on the sliding mechanism and the other notices on the SSC website.

The notice is clear that any candidate who fails to attend physically will be treated as absent and will not be considered for the final result.

What about withheld and rejected results, and when will marks come?

The notice says the results of 7 candidates have been kept withheld by the Commission for various reasons, and that the candidature of 4 candidates has been debarred or rejected, so their results were not processed. The notice lists roll numbers for these cases; this page does not repeat them. If your roll number is in either list, follow the Commission’s instructions on ssc.gov.in.

Marks of shortlisted and non-shortlisted candidates will be uploaded on the Commission’s website after the declaration of the final result of the examination. So marks are not yet available for the first-round list.

What does the notice not say?

The notice does not state:

• the names of the Regional Office cities for the IV and sliding process, or time slots for each candidate;
• the date of the final result or of the second round, if any;
• any minimum or cut-off marks for the final result;
• the reasons why the 7 results were withheld;
• how many vacancies may open up for reallocation after the sliding process;
• the date by which marks will be uploaded after the final result.

Use only the official website, ssc.gov.in, for updates and your slip.
