Time
भारत में रेलगाड़ी केवल यात्रा का साधन नहीं है, बल्कि लोगों को जोड़ने वाली एक डोर है। हर दिन लाखों लोग नौकरी, पढ़ाई, व्यापार और परिवार से मिलने के लिए ट्रेन में सफर करते हैं। लंबी दूरी की यात्रा में यात्री आपस में बातें करते हैं, खाना बाँटते हैं और कई बार अजनबी भी दोस्त बन जाते हैं। स्टेशन पर चाय की दुकानें, किताबों के ठेले और कई भाषाओं में होने वाली घोषणाएँ एक अलग ही माहौल बनाती हैं। पिछले कुछ वर्षों में तेज़ गाड़ियाँ, साफ़ डिब्बे और ऑनलाइन टिकट जैसी सुविधाएँ जुड़ी हैं, जिससे लंबी कतारों में खड़े होने की ज़रूरत कम हुई है।

How to use it

  1. Add a Hindi keyboard: on Windows, Settings → Time & language → Language → Hindi → Keyboard (Hindi Traditional is Inscript). Remington (GAIL) needs a separate keyboard installer, such as the Unicode utility the CPCT portal points to.
  2. Switch to Hindi input (Win+Space), choose the time, click the box and start typing.
  3. Compare your net WPM with the target: 30 w.p.m. for the SSC Hindi typing test, 20 NWPM in the CPCT rule book.

Details

Scoring
Word by word against the passage. Net WPM = correct words ÷ minutes, Gross WPM = typed words ÷ minutes, Accuracy = Net ÷ Gross (the CPCT formula)
Key depressions
Characters of correctly typed words, spaces included, per hour. 5 key depressions = 1 word, so 10,500 per hour = 35 w.p.m.
Hindi
Unicode Devanagari typed with your system's Hindi keyboard (Inscript or Remington GAIL). Krutidev and other legacy fonts are not used
Passages
Original practice passages in English and Hindi, chained so a 15-minute test never runs out
Rules
Copy-paste blocked; Backspace can be switched off to practise like a strict test

Questions

Inscript or Remington: which should I learn?

Inscript is the government standard layout built into Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. Remington (GAIL) follows the old typewriter layout that many experienced typists know. CPCT offers both on Unicode, so practise the one you will choose in the exam.

Does this support Krutidev or Mangal?

Mangal is a Unicode font, so yes: this test uses Unicode, which is what Mangal displays. Krutidev is a legacy non-Unicode font and is not supported; most current exams, including CPCT, use Unicode.

Why are my Hindi words marked wrong when they look right?

Words are compared exactly. A missing halant, a different nukta or an extra space inside a word makes it a different Unicode string. Check half letters (आधे अक्षर) and matras.

What Hindi speed do exams need?

SSC CHSL (LDC/JSA): 30 w.p.m. in 10 minutes per the 2025 notice. CPCT: a minimum of 20 NWPM in 15 minutes per the CPCT rule book, though the sample score card shows 25 wpm as the 50% mark, so check your notice.
