The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has declared the much-delayed Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Tier-I results 2016 on Tuesday. It was earlier reported that the results would be announced on October 7 but was postponed over some issues.
The commission conducted a re-examination for one Shift, i.e., the Second Shift (Batch-II) of the CGLE Tier-I which was held at 4.15 pm – 5.30 pm on August 27, 2016, citing administrative reasons. This led to the delay in the declaration of SSC CGL Tier-I results 2016.
