Tripura Public Service Commission — Sub‑Inspector of Excise Answer Key (Advt. No. 11/2025)
Published 1 Jul 2026 · Updated 10 Jul 2026
The Tripura Public Service Commission (TPSC) has released the answer key for the Written Examination of the Sub‑Inspector of Excise recruitment (Advertisement No. 11/2025). The key is issued by TPSC, the state body responsible for conducting all major civil‑service examinations in Tripura. The answer key posted on the official TPSC website is a provisional key, meaning it is subject to change if any objections are raised. Candidates can use this key to estimate their scores by matching their answer sheets with the listed correct options and applying the marking scheme mentioned in the original exam notification (typically, one mark per correct answer, negative marking if applicable). If a candidate believes an answer is incorrect, the notification allows objections to be filed within a stipulated window (usually 7‑10 days from the key’s release) and may require a nominal per‑question fee as prescribed by the commission. All objections are reviewed by the exam authority, and a revised (final) answer key is issued if any changes are warranted. After the final key is published, the commission proceeds to calculate total marks, prepare merit lists, and announce the result within the standard timeline for TPSC examinations, typically a few weeks after the final key release.
