SSC CPO (Delhi Police & CAPF SI) signature: what is specific to this exam

These SSC CPO (Delhi Police & CAPF SI) 2026 rules come from the SSC notice “Notice: Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police and Central Armed Police Forces Examination, 2026 (E/37/2026-C-2, dated 10.09.2026)”, page 11, last checked on 22 Oct 2026. The SSC CPO (Delhi Police & CAPF SI) form usually opens around September.

From our SSC CPO (Delhi Police & CAPF SI) notes

• SSC CPO recruits Sub-Inspectors for Delhi Police and the CAPFs. The 2026 form ran from 10.09.2026 to 30.09.2026. Like other SSC exams, the photo is taken live, and the signature is the main upload.
• The CPO 2026 notice gives the signature size in two places, and they disagree:
• Both say "about", and both give the same 10–20 KB JPG limit. We target 6.0×2.0 cm (about 472×157 px at 200 DPI), the main instruction and the size used across SSC. The portal checks file type and size, and a 6.0×2.0 cm signature passes both statements.
• Crop close to the ink in SahiSize. Do not leave wide white margins; SSC rejects "miniature" signatures.
• First confirm the file is JPG and between 10 and 20 KB. If it is and the upload still fails, try again later; heavy traffic near the last date causes failures that have nothing to do with your file. Do not wait for the final day.

Upload errors and how to fix them

These are the messages the SSC CPO (Delhi Police & CAPF SI) portal shows. Each one has a fix.

Error: Applications with blurred/miniature signatures will be rejected summarily

Fix: This line is in the SSC CPO notice. "Miniature" means the ink is tiny inside a big white image. Crop close to the signature so the ink fills most of the 6×2 cm box; Clean signature does this for you.

Error: File size should be between 10 KB and 20 KB

Fix: A plain signature often saves below 10 KB. Auto-fit raises the quality (and adds invisible padding if needed) to land between 10 and 20 KB.

Error: Invalid file format

Fix: The signature must be JPEG/JPG. Do not upload a PNG screenshot or a PDF scan.
