Where these papers come from

Many free PYQ PDFs are retyped, or copied from a coaching site with its logo and its answers. These are taken from SSC's own candidate response sheets.

  • SSC's own answer key

    Every key is read from SSC's candidate response sheet, where SSC itself marks the correct option. These are SSC's answers, not a coaching institute's.

  • Checked against a second copy

    Many shifts survive in more than one candidate's response sheet. Across the 144 papers we read, 8,149 questions could be compared with a second copy, and the two keys agreed on every one.

  • The full shift, in exam order

    Each PDF is one complete Tier 1 shift: 100 questions in four parts of 25, in the order the exam showed them. Figures, tables and maths are kept as SSC printed them, taken from the sheet's own images.

  • No coaching logos, no candidate details

    Response sheets carry a candidate's roll number and often a coaching site's watermark. None of that is in these files.

  • Marking and timing on the cover

    The cover gives the parts, the 60 minutes and SSC's marking: +2 for a correct answer, -0.5 for a wrong one. The 2026 notice adds a 15-minute timer for each part.

  • Answer key, not worked solutions

    This set gives SSC's answer key after the paper. Worked solutions are not included yet.

SSC CHSL, exam & syllabus reference

Where can I download SSC CHSL previous year question paper PDF for free?

This page has 10 SSC CHSL Tier 1 previous year question papers as free PDFs, shift-wise, from CHSL 2021 to CHSL 2024. Each is a full 100-question paper with SSC's official answer key. Sign in with a free MockTestZone account and download any of them.

Do these SSC CHSL PYQ PDFs come with answers?

Yes. Every paper ends with SSC's official answer key, read from SSC's own candidate response sheet and checked against a second copy of the same shift wherever one was available.

Are solutions included, or only the answer key?

Only the answer key. Each PDF gives the 100 questions and SSC's answer for each, so you can mark yourself, but it does not work through the solutions.

Which SSC CHSL question papers are on this page?

CHSL 2024: 3 July 2024 Shift 3, 8 July 2024 Shift 1, 2 July 2024 Shift 4. CHSL 2023: 9 August 2023 Shift 2, 14 August 2023 Shift 4. CHSL 2022: 13 March 2023 Shift 3, 9 March 2023 Shift 1. CHSL 2021: 25 May 2022 Shift 1, 31 May 2022 Shift 2, 10 June 2022 Shift 2.

Is the SSC CHSL 2025 question paper included?

Not yet. This set runs from CHSL 2021 to CHSL 2024.

What is the SSC CHSL Tier 1 exam pattern?

100 multiple-choice questions in four parts of 25: English, General Intelligence and Reasoning, Quantitative Aptitude and General Awareness. 60 minutes and 200 marks, +2 for a correct answer and -0.5 for a wrong one. The 2026 notice gives each part its own 15-minute timer.

Are these SSC CHSL question papers in English or Hindi?

English. The English part of CHSL is set in English for every candidate, and these PDFs carry the English version of the other three parts.

Is this SSC's official website?

No. MockTestZone is not SSC; SSC's official website is ssc.gov.in. These papers are taken from the candidate response sheets SSC issues after each exam, with SSC's answer key, and set out as clean PDFs.

How should I practise with an SSC CHSL previous year paper?

Sit the whole paper in 60 minutes, 15 minutes a part as the 2026 notice sets, without looking at the key. Then mark it: +2 for each correct answer and -0.5 for each wrong one, out of 200. Note which part lost the most marks and practise that part first.

Do I have to pay for these PDFs?

No. All of them are free and there is no payment at any point. You sign in once so your downloads stay together, and that is the only step.
