Provisional Answer Key (Paper-I) — Junior Engineer Grade-I Civil Engineering, Advt. 08/2025 — TPSC 2025
Published 17 Jun 2026 · Updated 5 Aug 2026
The Tripura Public Service Commission (TPSC) has released the provisional answer key for Paper-I of the Main Examination for the post of Junior Engineer, Grade-I, Civil Engineering, against Advertisement No. 08/2025. This answer key covers all four question paper series (A, B, C, and D). Candidates who appeared in the exam can now download the key and cross-check their responses to estimate their likely scores before the final answer key is published.
Since this is a provisional answer key, candidates have the opportunity to raise objections if they believe any answer is incorrect or if there is ambiguity in the question itself. The TPSC typically allows a defined window (as per the official notification) for submission of objections, often accompanied by a per-question fee. Objections are reviewed by a subject-matter expert panel, and if an objection is found valid, the answer is corrected in the final answer key and all affected candidates' scores are recalculated.
Candidates should download the answer key from the official TPSC website, match their responses question by question, and calculate their provisional raw score. If any answer appears incorrect or requires clarification, they should prepare detailed objections with supporting references (textbooks, standards, codes) and submit them within the stipulated deadline via the online portal or prescribed method.
Following the resolution of objections, TPSC will release the final answer key. The merit list and final result will then be declared in accordance with the examination's standard timeline and rules. Candidates are advised to keep the official TPSC website monitored for announcements regarding the objection submission period and subsequent result dates.

What is the difference between a provisional and final answer key?▾
A provisional answer key is released first and is subject to modification based on candidate objections. A final answer key is released after all valid objections are reviewed and incorporated by the TPSC. Your final score will be calculated using the final answer key, so objections can directly impact your marks if they are upheld.
How do I raise an objection against an answer?▾
After the objection window is announced, log into the TPSC portal, select the examination, and choose the questions you wish to challenge. Provide detailed reasoning with supporting references (textbooks, official codes, or standards). Submit the objection along with the required fee (as per the official notification) before the deadline. Keep your submission receipt for reference.
Is there a fee to raise an objection, and what is it?▾
The exact fee per objection, if any, will be specified in the official notification accompanying the answer key release. Check the TPSC website or the notification PDF for the current fee structure. Payment is usually made online during the submission process.
How do I calculate my estimated score from the answer key?▾
Match each of your answers against the provisional answer key. Refer to the official exam notification for the marking scheme (typically marks per question, negative marking for wrong answers, and whether there is any mark for unattempted questions). Calculate your raw score accordingly. Note that your final score may change if objections are upheld and the answer key is amended.
When will the final answer key be released?▾
The final answer key is released after the objection submission window closes and the TPSC has reviewed all objections. The exact date is announced on the official website. Monitor the TPSC portal regularly for updates, as the timeline is typically communicated in the official notification or a separate announcement.
When will the result and merit list be declared?▾
Following the release of the final answer key, TPSC will evaluate all candidates' scores and declare the merit list and final result according to its standard procedure and the rules outlined in the notification. The timeline will be communicated separately. Candidates should check the website regularly for result announcements.
Are objection fees refunded if my challenge is upheld?▾
This depends on TPSC's policy as stated in the official notification. Some commissions refund the fee if an objection is found valid. Check the detailed instructions in the answer key notification or the examination rules to confirm the refund policy.
I missed the objection deadline. Can I still raise an objection?▾
No, objections can only be submitted within the officially notified deadline. Once the window closes, no further objections are accepted. It is important to submit all objections before the deadline. Check the notification carefully to ensure you do not miss the date.
What if I find an error in the question itself, not just the answer?▾
If you believe the question is ambiguous, has a printing error, or is flawed, you can still raise an objection explaining the issue in detail. Provide supporting evidence and explain why the question is problematic. The expert panel will review such objections and may decide to award marks to all candidates or cancel the question if it is found to be genuinely defective.
