About SSC MTS — Multi-Tasking (Non-Technical) Staff Examination
The SSC Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) exam is the entry-level recruitment for matriculate (10th-pass) candidates seeking Group C non-technical posts across central government ministries, departments and subordinate offices. It attracts ~50 lakh applicants every year, making it one of India's largest government job exams.
MTS recruits for posts like Peon, Daftary, Jamadar, Junior Gestetner Operator, Chowkidar, Safaiwala, Mali and other support roles across CBIC, CBN, Ministry of Defence, and various central government offices. The pay scale is Level-1 (₹18,000-₹56,900) with allowances.
Since 2023, MTS uses a single-day computer-based examination conducted in TWO sessions on the same day — no Tier 1 / Tier 2 terminology. Session I is qualifying (must clear cutoff) and Session II decides merit. Notably, Session I has NO negative marking — unique to MTS among SSC exams.
Who the exam suits: Class 10 pass candidates within the age band who want a permanent central-government post with a fixed pay scale, allowances and a defined promotion route, without a graduate-level syllabus. Session I tests Numerical Ability and Reasoning at a level a good Class 10 student can handle; Session II tests General Awareness and English and is the whole merit list, so the exam favours a candidate who revises a fixed General Awareness list and basic English grammar with discipline. Havaldar applicants in CBIC and CBN also clear a physical efficiency and standard test, which the notification specifies separately.
How to use this page: the eligibility section states the age and qualification conditions as notified; the pattern section gives both sessions with marks, timings and the different negative-marking rules; the syllabus lists topics per section; the preparation section sets out a plan that weights Session II correctly; and the dates section tracks the cycle. Kamiyab's SSC MTS mock tests reproduce the two-session structure — no penalty in Session I, minus one in Session II — so your practice scores and the Mistake Map reflect the way the real merit is computed.
