Important Guidelines for the TNPSC APP Grade-II Answer Key 2026

• The correct answer for each question is tick-marked in the specimen question booklet hosted on the Commission’s website — this master copy, not your own exam-hall booklet, is the reference for objections.
• Regardless of the question-booklet code (A/B/C/D) you were issued during the exam, objections must be raised using the question number exactly as given in the specimen booklet.
• Every objection submitted with valid supporting evidence is reviewed by an Expert Committee before the answer key is finalised.
• Representations can be submitted only in online mode, through tnpsc.gov.in, within seven days of the answer key’s release.
• Objections sent by post or email receive no consideration.
• Submissions made online after the specified cut-off time (5.45 PM) on the last date are also not entertained.
• The final answer key is published only after the entire selection process for this examination is complete.

TNPSC APP Grade-II Exam Pattern 2026

(Confirm the exact total marks, number of questions, duration, and negative-marking rule from the official notification 18/2025 before publishing, since this varies from other TNPSC exams and hasn’t been consistently reported across sources.)

Latest Update on TNPSC APP Grade-II 2026

• The provisional answer key for the Assistant Public Prosecutor Grade-II Preliminary Exam (notification 18/2025, dated 02.12.2025) was hosted on tnpsc.gov.in on 24.02.2026, following the exam held on 15.02.2026.
• The online objection window for this key closed seven days after release, by 5.45 PM on the last notified date.

• Compare your expected score with previous cut-off trends for Assistant Public Prosecutor Grade-II to gauge your chances of clearing the Preliminary stage.
• If you clear the qualifying marks, begin preparing for the Main Written Examination (Descriptive) without waiting for the official result, since the gap between stages can be short.
• Keep checking tnpsc.gov.in and this page for the Preliminary result and Mains exam notification.
