On this page
The CTET December 2019 Paper 1 answer key is listed on the official CTET website as a final answer key, not a provisional one. It appears on the 'Previous Year Final Answer Key' page of ctet.nic.in as 'CTET December 2019 Answer Key Paper 1' (2019), with an accessible PDF of about 240 KB. The supplied evidence states no objection window and no objection fee, so none is given here.

Is the CTET December 2019 Paper 1 key provisional or final?
The official listing places this entry under 'Previous Year Final Answer Key', so it is presented as a final key. The PDF header reads 'CTET DEC-2019 KEY' and carries no separate 'provisional' label in the text available. Because it is a final key, this page does not describe an objection process. The evidence mentions none.
Release date
The key itself prints 27/12/2019 in its header, and this page uses that as the original release date. The exam date printed on the same document is 08/12/2019. The file path on the official site suggests it was uploaded to the listing in March 2022. That upload date should not be confused with the 2019 date on the key. The listing page's footer shows 'Last Updated: Sep 29, 2026', which refers to the page and not to this key.
How to view the Paper 1 answer key
- Open the official 'Previous Year Final Answer Key' page on ctet.nic.in. No login is described for it.
- Find the row titled 'CTET December 2019 Answer Key Paper 1' with the year 2019. Do not confuse it with the neighbouring 'CTET December 2019 Answer Key Paper 2' row or the July 2019 and December 2018 entries.
- Under 'View / Download', choose the 'Accessible Version: View (240 KB)' link to open the PDF.
The evidence does not confirm that the file is available for download at this moment. If the link does not open, return to the official listing page.
What the PDF contains
The PDF is a table of question numbers and answer codes, laid out as 'QNO ANS' columns. It gives a separate table for each question-paper set, A, B, C and D. A candidate must use the table for the set printed on their own booklet.
Main section and language sections
- The first pages are headed 'PAPER-I MAIN' and cover question numbers 1 to 90 for each of Sets A to D.
- Later pages cover question numbers 91 to 150 in language-wise tables, each headed with the language name, such as 01-ENGLISH, 02-HINDI, 03-ASSAMESE, 04-BANGLA, 05-GARO and 06-GUJARATI, again for Sets A to D.
- The text supplied for this page stops during the Gujarati tables. This page therefore cannot confirm which further language sections the full PDF includes. Check the full file for your language.
The '9' rule
Each page carries the note 'Answer key 9 means marks awarded to all the candidates'. If you see the code 9 against a question number, the key awards marks for that question to every candidate. It does not mean option 9, since no question has nine options.
Objection window and fee
The supplied evidence has no objection window, no objection fee and no challenge procedure for this key. Because the document is listed as a final key from 2019, this page does not suggest that objections can still be raised. For any CTET query, use the Help section of the official site.
Tips for checking your answers
- Match your booklet set (A, B, C or D) to the correct table before comparing any answers.
- Check the main section and your chosen language section separately, since their question numbers differ.
- Treat the official PDF as the only reference. This page deliberately does not reproduce the answer tables.
- Remember that the answer key alone does not give a score or qualifying status. The supplied evidence has no marking scheme, cut-off or result information.
FAQ
Is this CTET December 2019 Paper 1 answer key final?
The official site lists it under 'Previous Year Final Answer Key'. The PDF text does not separately say 'final'.
Does the PDF cover all four sets?
Yes. The tables cover Sets A, B, C and D, for the main section and for the language sections available in the supplied text.
Can I still raise an objection?
The evidence states no objection window, fee or procedure, so none can be described.
