Practise the Hindi typing skill test the way it is set: Kruti Dev on the Remington layout, a timed passage, and a result in net words per minute with accuracy. Choose the length your exam uses and sit it in full.
Remington (Kruti Dev) layout, the one many Hindi typing tests set - your exam's notification says which layout it uses. The clock starts when you press your first key.

How to use
- Choose Practice test and the length of your exam - 10 min for an SSC CHSL-style test, 15 or 30 min to build stamina.
- Type the passage without looking down. Wrong keys turn red. Correct them only if your exam allows backspace.
- Read Net WPM and accuracy on the result, and write them in the progress log to compare week by week.
Tip:Exams score speed and accuracy together. A clean 28 WPM usually beats a careless 35, so get accuracy above 95% first.
Common problems & fixes
- My speed collapses in a full-length test
- That is stamina, not skill: short tests flatter everyone. In the last three weeks, sit at least one full-length test a day. Pause and resume rather than abandoning a run.
- I keep mistyping ि
- In Kruti Dev the ि sign is typed before its consonant:
fdfor कि. Repeat lesson 6 until it is automatic - it is the commonest error in exam passages. - The exam keyboard layout was not the one I practised
- Remington and InScript are different keyboards. The notification names the layout or the font (Kruti Dev means Remington and Mangal usually means InScript). Practise only that one.
- Conjuncts and half letters slow me down
- क्ष, त्र, श्र and the half letters have their own keys or key pairs. The matra and conjunct chart lists each with its exact keys.

Which exams test Hindi typing
Hindi typing is a qualifying skill test in many recruitments: the SSC CHSL typing test for LDC and JSA posts, CPCT in Madhya Pradesh, High Court and district court exams for typists, stenographers and clerks, and state clerical exams in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh and elsewhere. The rules change from one notification to the next, so treat the figures below as typical and check yours for the final word.
- SSC CHSL typing test: 10 minutes on a computer. Hindi candidates need about 30 words per minute (9,000 key depressions an hour).
- CPCT (Madhya Pradesh): a timed Hindi typing section in which you choose InScript or a Remington layout. Many posts ask for 20 WPM in Hindi, and some ask for more.
- High Court and district courts: commonly 25-30 WPM in Hindi, often on Kruti Dev with the Remington layout, sometimes with a separate limit on errors.
How your speed is counted
Exams count key depressions: every keystroke counts, and five keystrokes make one word. In Kruti Dev one Hindi letter can take two or three keys - भ is Hk, क्ष is {k - so 30 WPM in Hindi means fewer Hindi words than it sounds. The test on this page counts the same way, and its headline figure is net WPM: correct keystrokes only.
Practise the way the test is taken
Use the same layout as your exam, sit the full length, and keep your eyes on the passage rather than your hands. Warm up with the printable practice sheets, and if you are still learning the keys, start with the lessons in the Hindi typing tutor. The speed tips guide has a four-week plan, and Remington vs InScript explains the two layouts.
