Cutoff Marks & Qualifying Criteria

To qualify for TGCET 2026, candidates need to meet minimum cutoff criteria. Selection is based on a combination of marks obtained, category reservation, special category status, and local area criteria.

Qualifying the exam alone does not guarantee admission. The final merit rank — determined by your marks, category, and local area status — decides your school allotment. Students who score higher and belong to the local constituency of a school get priority.

What to Do After the TGCET 2026 Result

Getting the result is step one. Here’s the complete road map for what comes next:

If You Are Selected (Phase 1 Merit List)

• Keep an eye on the official website for the counselling schedule and Phase 1 admission dates. Selected students in Phase 1 must report to their allotted Gurukul schools typically between June 7–28 (dates as per previous year patterns; confirm from the official portal).
• Bring all required original documents for certificate verification on the counselling day.
• Failure to report within the deadline will result in cancellation of your seat, which will then be filled from the waiting list.

If You Are on the Waiting List

• Do not lose hope. Phase 2 counselling will be conducted shortly after Phase 1.
• Vacant seats from Phase 1 (due to non-reporting or rejections) will be offered to waiting list candidates.
• Stay updated via SMS alerts and the official website.

If You Did Not Qualify

• Review your performance and begin preparing for the next year’s examination.
• Focus on 4th grade Maths, Environmental Science, Telugu/English/Urdu — the core subjects tested.
• Explore other state-level residential school options like Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNV) and KVS for parallel admissions.

Documents Required for TGCET 2026 Counselling

All selected candidates must carry the following documents for certificate verification at the allotted school. Missing documents may lead to cancellation of admission:

• TGCET Seat Allotment Printout (downloaded from the official website)
• Original Bonafide Certificate from the current school
• Original Transfer Certificate (TC) / Record Sheet of Class 4
• Original Caste Certificate (issued by a Tahsildar) — for SC/ST/BC candidates

• Physical Fitness Certificate (from a registered medical officer, minimum rank of Asst. Civil Surgeon)
• Aadhaar Card (original + photocopy)
• Ration Card (photocopy)
• 3 recent passport-size photographs
• TGCET Hall Ticket (original)

Common Mistakes to Avoid After the Result

• Not downloading the result PDF immediately — website traffic can slow things down later. Save a copy the moment you access it.
• Ignoring SMS alerts — the government sends school and reporting date details via SMS. Keep your registered mobile number active.
• Missing the reporting deadline — even selected candidates lose their seats if they don’t report on time. Deadlines are strict.
• Incomplete document set at counselling — missing even one original certificate can disqualify your admission on the spot.
• Visiting unofficial websites for result PDFs — only trust tgcet.cgg.gov.in and tgswreis.telangana.gov.in for authentic information.
• Not reporting discrepancies in the result — errors in name, date of birth, or category must be corrected before admission begins.
