The Telangana Board of Secondary Education (TGBIE) announced the results of the Intermediate Public Advanced Supplementary Examinations (IPASE) on June 11, 2026. Official data reveals that the pass percentage for second-year General stream students has fallen below 50%, standing at 47.70%. This marks a decline from 50.96% recorded in 2025, raising concerns among education officials.
Examination Details
The supplementary examinations were conducted from May 13 to May 21 across 889 centres in the state. Nearly four lakh students from both General and Vocational streams appeared for the exams, which were held shortly after the regular Intermediate results. A total of 3,98,459 students appeared for the supplementary examinations this year. Answer scripts were evaluated at 17 spot valuation centres before the results were finalised.
Student Support Initiatives
The board continued its student-support initiatives, including counselling services in thousands of junior colleges and access to mental-health assistance through Tele-MANAS, aimed at helping students cope with examination-related stress.
Second-Year General Stream Performance
In the second-year General stream, out of 1,19,307 students who appeared, only 56,904 cleared the examination, resulting in a pass percentage of 47.70%. While this is an improvement from 43.79% in 2024, the year-on-year decline compared to 2025 is likely to draw attention from education officials.
First-Year General Stream Performance
First-year candidates fared better. Of the 2.5 lakh students who appeared for the first-year General stream supplementary examination, 1.72 lakh passed, pushing the pass percentage to 68.71%. This marks a modest rise from last year's 67.36% and continues an upward trend over the past three years.
Gender Performance
Girls maintained a clear lead over boys, consistent with regular Intermediate examinations. In the first-year General stream, girls recorded a pass percentage of 75.85%, more than 13 percentage points higher than boys, who registered 62.37%. The gap remained visible in the second year, with 51.19% of girls clearing the examination compared to 45.62% for boys.
Stream-Wise Performance
Science stream students performed considerably better than their peers in commerce and humanities-related streams. Among first-year candidates, MPC emerged as the strongest-performing group with a pass percentage of 78.57%, followed closely by BPC at 75.16%. In the second year, BPC students recorded a pass percentage of 56.04%, while MPC candidates achieved 50.45%. In comparison, commerce-focused streams struggled: MEC students registered a pass percentage of just 37.65% in the second year, while CEC students recorded 41.25%.
