I'm new to photoshop and this commmunity. I have 25 images in PNG format, grayscale, 2100 x 2100 pixels and ~50 KB in size.
Is there a way to merge the images consecutively in a single PNG file without increasing file size or losing the orginal quality of each image?
I already tried creating a 25*2100 x 2100 canvas to Place every image and manually order them in CS6. But the resulting file (after merging layers) became huge (~300 MB), PS didn't even let me save it in PNG format. Hope you guys can give me a better solution, one that ideally results in a file of size 25*~50 KB.

If you really need the canvas size to be that big, you could try using File>Export>Save for Web. If you pick PNG-8 you can change the amount of colors used. By reducing this number, you lower the file size. Using GIF instead of PNG-8 allows you to reduce the filesize even further.
You will also lose image quality though, and I think it isn't realistic to expect a (25*2100) x 2100 file to be 50 kB max. Is there any specific reason that you need it to be 50kB max?
If you want to stack the images one atop the other:
Create a new image and pull each of your images into consecutive transparent levels of that single file. Now you have a stack of prepared images, probably with transparent background, which will provide your desired outcome when the system flattens them when saved as the format you desire. Save the original with layers in Photoshop for future editing and accessing the component images.
