SSC Combined Hindi Translators answer key out: raise objections by September 24

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has released the tentative answer key for Paper I of the Combined Hindi Translators Examination 2026. Along with the answer key, individual candidate response sheets and question papers have also been made available on the official SSC website, ssc.gov.in. The answer key was released on September 21, 2026, according to Testbook and PW.live, while Careerpower and Prepp reported its release on September 22, 2026.

This release allows candidates to verify their answers, calculate their probable scores, and submit objections against any discrepancies in the tentative answer key. The objection window commenced with the answer key’s release and will close on September 24, 2026, at 11 PM.

Accessing Answer Key and Response Sheets

Candidates can access their individual response sheets and the tentative answer key by logging into the commission’s portal. This requires using their registration number and password. The SSC has instructed candidates to retain a printed copy of their respective response sheets, as these documents will not be accessible after the specified period. Requests for providing response sheets or tentative answer keys at a later stage will not be entertained by the commission.

The Paper 1 Computer Based Examination for the Combined Hindi Translators Examination 2026 was conducted on September 8 and September 13, 2026. The exam comprised 200 questions covering General Hindi and General English, with a total of 200 marks. Candidates receive one mark for every correct response, while 0.25 marks are deducted for each incorrect answer. No marks are deducted for unattempted questions.

Objection Submission Process and Fee

The objection facility provides a mechanism for candidates to submit representations against any questions or answers included in the tentative answer key. Candidates wishing to challenge a question must pay a fee of ₹50 for each question they contest. This fee was reduced from an unspecified previous amount for this examination, says Testbook. Objections received after the stipulated deadline of September 24, 2026, at 11 PM will not be accepted by the SSC.

Following the completion of the objection process, the Staff Selection Commission will release the final answer key and the result for Paper I. Candidates who qualify in Paper I will proceed to the next stage of the SSC JHT selection process, which includes Paper 2 and Document Verification. A total of 303 tentative vacancies have been announced for Junior Translator, Junior Hindi Translator, and Senior Translator posts. The SSC JHT Result 2026 is expected to be available in the second week of October 2026.
