Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has placed the Constable (GD) Examination 2027 in its official 2026–27 examination calendar, making this one of the most important upcoming recruitment cycles for candidates targeting uniformed central forces. The calendar covers Constable (GD) recruitment in the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) and SSF, along with Rifleman (GD) recruitment in Assam Rifles; the calendar wording also mentions NIA. As of 18 October 2026, however, SSC has not yet published the detailed 2027 recruitment notification on its current notice board, so the exact vacancy count, force-wise distribution, category breakup, application fee, age limits, education requirement, physical standards and exact application deadline should not be treated as announced. The official calendar schedules the advertisement for September 2026, the closing month as October 2026, and the Computer-Based Examination for January–March 2027. Candidates interested in this large national recruitment should use the waiting period to prepare documents, check their age against the eventual cut-off date, and begin physical and written-exam preparation. This page will need factual updating as soon as SSC releases the detailed notification.
