Key moments
The PSTET 2026 result is expected to be declared on April 2, 2026, following the Punjab State Teacher Eligibility Test (PSTET) conducted on March 15, 2026. Candidates across Punjab are anxiously awaiting the announcement, which will determine their eligibility for teaching positions in the state.
The provisional answer key for the exam was released just a day after the test, on March 16, 2026. Candidates were given the opportunity to challenge the answer key during an objection window that was open from March 17 to March 21, 2026. This process allowed test-takers to ensure that their concerns regarding the answers were addressed before the final results were published.
As the clock ticks down to the result announcement, candidates are reminded that the final answer key is also expected to be released on April 2, 2026. This key will play a crucial role in determining the final scores of the candidates, as it will be used to calculate the marks based on the objections raised during the earlier window.
To qualify for the PSTET, candidates from the General category must secure at least 90 out of 150 marks, which equates to 60%. Meanwhile, candidates belonging to SC, ST, OBC, and PH categories need a minimum of 82 marks, or 55% of the total. These qualifying scores are critical for candidates aiming to receive the PSTET Eligibility Certificate, which is valid for seven years.
In total, the PSTET consists of two papers, and the results will be pivotal for many aspiring teachers in Punjab. With only 18 days between the exam and the result announcement, the anticipation among candidates is palpable.
SCERT Punjab has advised all candidates to keep their login credentials ready for the results day, as scorecards and certificates will be available for download approximately two weeks after the results are declared. This preparation is essential for candidates who wish to swiftly access their results and understand their standing in the competitive examination.
As the date approaches, the excitement and anxiety among candidates continue to build. The PSTET is not just a test; it represents a significant step towards their professional aspirations in education. Official statements and reactions from candidates are expected to flood in once the results are announced, reflecting the high stakes involved in this examination.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any changes or updates to the result announcement process, but candidates are encouraged to stay informed through official channels for the latest information.
