Answer Key 2026

Official answer keys with objection windows and response sheet links.

What is Answer Key?

An answer key is the list of correct options for an exam released by the conducting body — first provisional, with a window to raise objections for a fee, then final after review. This section reports each key with the objection dates and the official link.

How the objection process works

The provisional answer key and your response sheet are published together, usually within 3–7 days of the exam. You can challenge any answer during the objection window (2–5 days) by paying a fee per question — ₹50 to ₹200 depending on the body — which is refunded only if the challenge is accepted. Attach a reference from a standard textbook or the official syllabus; unsupported objections are rejected. The final answer key incorporates accepted challenges, and questions found wrong are either dropped or awarded to all candidates as stated in the notice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the answer key information on this page come from?

Each post is written from the official notice published by the conducting body and links that source (PDF or page). If a figure here and the official document ever disagree, the official document is correct — please tell us so we can fix it.

How do I calculate my score from the answer key?

Count correct answers against the key, subtract negative marks as per the notification (commonly 0.25 or 0.33 per wrong answer in SSC, 1/3 in RRB, 0.25 in IBPS), and ignore dropped questions. For multi-shift exams the merit list uses normalised marks, so compare with the previous cut-off only as a guide.
