TNPSC Answer Key Download: Login Details and Common Problems
The answer key for Group 1 is made available on tnpsc.gov.in. Log in with your registration number and date of birth or password, then open the answer key or response sheet link. The exam was held on 27 Sep 2026.
Save the PDF or take a screenshot immediately. Links are usually active for a short period only, particularly the ones that show your own response sheet.
How to Calculate Your Probable Score
Compare each of your marked answers with the key. Add the marks given for a correct answer and subtract negative marks for a wrong one, using the marking scheme printed in the exam notice or on your question paper.
Keep the calculation section-wise. It helps you see where you gained and where you lost marks, and it also tells you whether a sectional cut-off is a risk.
Your own calculation cannot guarantee selection. Wait for the Sarkari Result before you take any big decision.
Raising an Objection: What to Know
Where the organisation allows challenges, you have to select the question, give your suggested answer and upload proof, and a fee per question may apply.
Use reliable proof such as NCERT or other standard textbooks, government publications or the official syllabus reference. Opinions or guide books are seldom accepted. Once the window closes, late objections are not entertained.
Why the Final Answer Key Can Differ
A provisional key is prepared quickly after the exam. Subject experts review the objections and may drop a question, change an answer or give marks for more than one option. The Sarkari Result is then prepared from the final key.
A safe approach is to prepare for the next stage in parallel while you wait for the final key.
What Comes After the Answer Key
After objections are reviewed, TNPSC prepares the Sarkari Result and cut-off. Follow the official site for the Sarkari Result date, since it is not always fixed in advance.
