The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has published the revised First Round of Tentative Allocation (FRTA) for the Stenographer Grade C and Grade D Examination 2025. The revised allocation was issued after the Commission reviewed the earlier results following representations received from candidates regarding the evaluation of the Stenographer Skill Test.

Earlier, SSC had announced the tentative allocation on June 18, 2026, but withdrew it the following day after concerns were raised over the Skill Test evaluation. Following a detailed review, the Commission has now released the revised allocation in accordance with the Sliding Mechanism adopted for the recruitment process.

Why Did SSC Release a Revised Allocation List?

The revised tentative allocation has been published after SSC reconsidered the Skill Test evaluation based on representations submitted by candidates.

The Commission had withdrawn the earlier allocation list released on June 18, 2026, to conduct a detailed review. After completing the review, SSC issued a fresh allocation list using the Sliding Mechanism, ensuring that allocations are made according to merit and the preferences submitted by candidates.
