    Get an officer's certificate that the SSC cannot be traced: from the police (or a Deputy Tahsildar) if it was lost while travelling or otherwise, from the fire service if it burnt, from the MRO if it was lost in floods or a calamity.

    Explain clearly in the application how it was lost; those details are published in the Gazette.

  2. Do this now

    Have an affidavit made on ₹50 stamp paper in the board's model, sign it, and have it attested by a Junior Civil Judge or Notary.
