The Board of School Education Haryana (BSEH) has released the provisional HTET answer key 2026 for the Post Graduate Teacher (PGT) level, available on the official website, htet.eapplynow.com. Candidates who appeared for the Haryana Teacher Eligibility Test, conducted on 4 and 5 July 2026, can now download the PGT answer key and match their responses. BSEH has also opened the objection window, allowing candidates to formally challenge any answer they believe is incorrect, while the answer keys for Primary Teacher (PRT) and Trained Graduate Teacher (TGT) levels are expected to follow shortly.
How to Download the HTET Answer Key 2026
Candidates can check the HTET answer key 2026 for PGT by following these steps:
- Visit the official website — htet.eapplynow.com or bseh.org.in
- Look for the “HTET Answer Key 2026 Provisional” notification
- Select Level 3 (PGT) and choose the relevant subject
- Select your question paper set (A, B, C, or D)
- Download the PDF and match it against your response sheet
Steps to Raise an Objection
Candidates who spot a discrepancy in the HTET answer key 2026 can challenge it through the official objection process:
- Log in to the BSEH portal using your registration number and date of birth
- Click on the “Raise Objection / Challenge Answer Key” link
- Select the specific Question ID and paper set you wish to challenge
- Upload valid supporting evidence, such as a standard textbook reference
- Pay the prescribed objection fee per question, which is refunded if the challenge is accepted
Each objection is reviewed individually by a panel of subject-matter experts, and only validated challenges will be reflected in the revised, final answer key. Candidates are advised to act promptly, as the objection link remains active only for a limited period.
Qualifying Marks and What Comes Next
To qualify in the HTET answer key 2026 evaluation, general category candidates must secure a minimum of 90 marks out of 150 (60%), while reserved category candidates with Haryana domicile need at least 82 marks (55%). There is no negative marking in HTET, so scores are calculated simply as the sum of correctly marked answers. Once the objection window closes, BSEH will review all submitted challenges and release the final answer key, which will be used to prepare the official HTET result and scorecard. Candidates are advised to keep checking htet.eapplynow.com and bseh.org.in regularly for the PRT and TGT answer key releases, as well as updates on the final result declaration.
