CTET Feb 2026 Paper 1 Final Answer Key for the 1 March 2026 Exam

The CTET Feb26 Answer Key P1 for the 1 March 2026 exam is a final answer key, not a provisional one. The official PDF is headed "CTET FEB-2026 FINAL ANSWER KEY EXAM DATE-01-03-2026" and is listed under "Previous Year Final Answer Key" on ctet.nic.in. The evidence states no objection window and no objection fee for this document, so none is given here.

Quick facts

Is the key provisional or final?

It is final. The heading of the PDF says so, and the key sits on the official page for final answer keys. A final key is normally the reference after any earlier review, but the evidence does not include an earlier provisional key for this session, so this page does not describe how the two compare.

Objection window and fee

The listing and the PDF give no objection dates, challenge procedure or fee for this key. Because the document is labelled final, this page does not describe any objection process. If you need to know whether any further correction route exists, check the notices on the official CTET website.

How to view the answer key

1. Open the "Previous Year Final Answer Key" page on ctet.nic.in.
2. Find the row titled "CTET Feb26 Answer Key P1 01March2026" (year 2026).
3. Choose the "View" option in the Accessible Version column, or use the download icon beside it.

The PDF is linked directly from the official listing. Do not confuse it with the separate rows for P1 07Feb2026, P1 08Feb2026 or the Paper 2 keys. Those are different files and are not covered here.

What the PDF contains

The portion of the PDF reviewed for this article is laid out as question-number and answer-option tables, one page per set. It covers four sets, K, L, M and N. For each set it shows:

• Paper I Main, questions 1 to 90.
• Language sections, questions 91 to 150, for English (section 01), Hindi (section 02) and Sanskrit (section 16).

Each page ends with a legend for coded answers: A = 1,2; B = 1,3; C = 1,4; D = 2,3; E = 2,4; F = 3,4; Z = ALL. If a question's answer is one of these letters, read it using this legend. The reviewed text may not include every section or language of the full file, so check the PDF for the section you attempted.

Matching your question paper

Answers differ by set, so first confirm the set letter (K, L, M or N) printed on your question booklet. Then compare answers only against the table for that set and section.

Timing and availability

The exam took place on 1 March 2026, so this is a completed event as of 2 October 2026. The listing page showed a "Last Updated" date of 29 September 2026. That is a page-level date, not the release date of this key, and the evidence gives no original release date. The listing carried this row at that update, but the evidence does not prove the file remains available at any later time.

FAQ

Can I raise objections to this key?
