The HSSC Group C application deadline in the headline was extended to August 2, 2024, at 5:00 PM. That deadline has passed. It applied to Haryana Staff Selection Commission Advertisement Nos. 07/2024 and 10/2024—not to a current recruitment drive.
Which HSSC recruitment did the August 2 deadline cover?
Scroll.in reported on August 1, 2024, that HSSC extended the online application deadline for Group C Advertisement Nos. 07/2024 and 10/2024. The report reproduced the notice’s wording: “This is for the information of the candidates that Commission has decided to extend the closing date for online application portal till 02.08.2024 (till 5:00 PM). All candidates who have not filled their application form may do the same till 02.08.2024 (till 5:00 PM).” The extension was for those 2024 notices only.
The report counted 3,134 Group 6 posts across the two categories:
| Category in the 2024 report | Posts |
|---|---|
| Commerce | 1,296 |
| Steno | 1,838 |
| Total | 3,134 |
These figures are the historical totals reported for the 2024 notices, not current vacancies. Scroll.in’s August 1, 2024 report is the source for the deadline wording and vacancy breakdown.

No. August 2, 2024, at 5:00 PM was the extended closing time. The headline’s “apply now” language is outdated; it should not be read as an invitation to apply today or as evidence that the 2024 portal remains open.
How to check for a current HSSC application
HSSC’s advertisements listing, as checked October 8, 2026, showed Group C Advertisement No. 06/2026, dated June 22, 2026, and a separate Group D closing-date extension notice dated July 3, 2026. Those later listings show subsequent recruitment activity, but they did not reopen the 2024 deadline.
- Open the official HSSC advertisements page.
- Find the advertisement for the recruitment you are considering and confirm its number and year.
- Read that advertisement for the post category, eligibility, application dates, and selection stages, then use only the portal linked from the relevant notice.
For example, HSSC’s separate Group C Steno Advertisement No. 03/2026 invited CET Group-C-qualified candidates to apply from February 2 through February 15, 2026. Its selection process included a qualifying stenography skill test followed by a written examination. This was a different recruitment from the 2024 Commerce and Steno drive, and its application window has also passed. Check the HSSC advertisements page for the notice relevant to any later cycle.

Start with the advertisement number and year rather than a headline or post label alone. Then compare the category, eligibility conditions, application dates, and selection stages. For Steno recruitment, read the specific notice for skill-test requirements and the written-exam pattern; the 2026 Steno process does not establish the requirements for another cycle.
