The release marks a significant step towards the final results, allowing aspirants to estimate their performance.

Prospective teachers can access the provisional answer key exclusively through the official portal, mahatet.in. The council has made separate PDF documents available for Paper 1 and Paper 2, catering to different teaching levels.

Furthermore, answer keys are categorized by subject and medium of instruction.
Candidates should follow a straightforward process to download their key:

- Select your specific paper (Paper 1 or Paper 2).
- Choose the correct subject and medium that matches your question paper.
- The answer key will display in PDF format for you to download and save.
It is vital to cross-check your question paper set code with the corresponding answer key before evaluating your responses to ensure accurate score calculation.
Challenge the Answer Key: Objection Process and Timeline
Understanding that discrepancies can occur, the MSCE has activated an online objection window. Candidates who believe any answer in the provisional key is incorrect can formally challenge it. The process to raise an objection is conducted online through the same official portal.
To submit a challenge, candidates must log in using their registration credentials, select the specific paper, subject, and question number, and provide what they believe is the correct answer. A valid explanation or reference material must be uploaded or cited to support the claim. Each challenge requires individual submission, and details should be reviewed carefully before final submission as edits are not permitted post-verification.
The objection window is open for a limited period. Candidates can submit their challenges starting December 19, 2025. The deadline for raising any objection is December 27, 2025. The council will not entertain any submissions received after this date.
Next Steps After the Objection Window Closes
Once the objection period concludes, the examination authority will meticulously review all received challenges. If any answer is found to be erroneous based on the evidence provided, necessary corrections will be incorporated into the final answer key. This revised final key will then be used for the definitive evaluation and preparation of results.
It is important for candidates to note that no further challenges will be accepted once the final answer key is published. The provisional key serves as a transparency measure, allowing aspirants to participate in ensuring the accuracy of the evaluation process before their final scores are locked in.
This step brings candidates one step closer to achieving their goal of becoming certified teachers in Maharashtra's schools. All stakeholders are advised to regularly check the official MAHA TET website for further updates regarding the final answer key and result declaration.
