SSC CGEPT 2027 Exam City & Admit Card: 17–18 November Download Guide

Updated 9 November 2026 | SSC Coast Guard CGEPT 01/2027 and 02/2027 candidates

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has issued the examination-city and Admission Certificate notice for the Indian Coast Guard Enrolled Persons Test (CGEPT), batches 01/2027 and 02/2027. Candidates should check their city information now and download the admission certificate when it becomes available for their allotted examination date.

CGEPT 2027: important dates

The 17–18 November dates apply to the Stage-I CBE for CGEPT-01/27 and CGEPT-02/27. SSC’s 2 November notice also lists other November tests, but those are separate examinations and should not be mixed with CGEPT.

How to check the examination city and admission certificate

1. Open the official SSC website.
2. Use the candidate login/Admission Certificate area and select the Indian Coast Guard CGEPT examination corresponding to your batch.
3. Sign in with the credentials used for the application. Do not share the password, OTP or login details with third parties.
4. Open the examination-city information and note the city, date and any instructions displayed.
5. When the Admission Certificate is available, download the PDF and print a legible copy. Save a backup on your device.
6. Check the candidate name, photograph, roll/registration details, examination date, shift, reporting time and centre address. If any detail is inconsistent, use the official SSC help channels promptly.

Important: City intimation and the Admission Certificate are not necessarily the same document. City information helps candidates plan travel; the Admission Certificate carries the final examination-centre and reporting instructions. Do not assume that a city slip alone is sufficient for entry.

What candidates should carry and verify

• Printed Admission Certificate, once released.
• Original photo identity document specified in the certificate (and any additional document required for a name/date-of-birth mismatch).
• Photograph or other supporting item only if the instructions specifically require it.
• Centre address, gate-closing/reporting time and prohibited-item instructions.

Follow the instructions printed on the individual Admission Certificate. The permitted identity documents and reporting requirements should be taken from that document and the SSC notice, not from generic coaching-site checklists.

Recruitment context: what is CGEPT?

CGEPT is the Coast Guard Enrolled Persons Test used in the recruitment process for enrolled personnel. The 2026 recruitment cycle for batches 01/2027 and 02/2027 was advertised through SSC; the application period is over. This page is an examination-stage update, not a fresh application invitation.

For context, the Indian Coast Guard is an armed force under the Ministry of Defence with maritime law-enforcement, search-and-rescue, pollution-response and coastal-security responsibilities. Candidates preparing for the test should keep the organisation’s role distinct from the Indian Navy: both contribute to maritime security, but their statutory responsibilities, service structure and recruitment routes are not identical.
