The MPSC Rajyaseva 2026 answer key is final: MPSC published the first answer key of the 31 May 2026 Prelims on 1 June 2026, took objections until 11:59 p.m. on 6 June 2026, and posted the final keys for Paper 1 and Paper 2 on 17 June 2026. The result followed on 22 June 2026. The State Services Mains is now a descriptive exam, so it has no objective answer key.
Where is the Rajyaseva answer key published?
All MPSC keys sit on the Answer Keys of Examinations page of mpsc.gov.in. For the 2026 Prelims, the 1 June notice said the first keys for all four question-booklet sets (A, B, C and D) had been posted there. Keys are issued for each of the four sets, so use the key for your own booklet set. The same notice proposed a concession for visually impaired candidates on figure- and map-based questions in Paper 2.
How do you object to the MPSC answer key?
- Online only. Objections are filed through your profile on the online application system, under the procedure in MPSC's notices of 17 November 2021 and 1 July 2022. Objections sent in any other form, or without the fee, are not considered.
- Fee. Under the 1 July 2022 notice, each objection (question) costs ₹100 plus ₹44, for all exams held from 1 July 2022.
- Window. For 2026 the facility ran until 11:59 p.m. on 6 June 2026. In 2025 MPSC extended the deadline by a day.
- Help. For technical problems MPSC lists the toll-free numbers 1800-1234-275 and 7303821822 and [email protected].
The 2021 notice explains why the online route exists: objections used to arrive by post within a seven-day window and were sent to subject experts before the final key was issued.
How do you work out your Prelims score?
Under the 2026 advertisement, the combined Prelims carries 400 marks in total across two papers. Score each paper against the final key for your set, not the first key. The Prelims only decides who goes on to the Mains. Final merit uses the Mains (1,750 marks for Papers 3 to 9) and the interview (275 marks).
What happens after the final key?
The 2026 Prelims result (State Services) was declared on 22 June 2026. It was a list of qualified candidates by seat number, published together with the cut-off marks. In the 2024 cycle, MPSC published first keys (11 June 2025) and final keys (21 August 2025) for the objective Mains papers: Language Paper 2 and General Studies Papers 1 to 4. The Mains is now descriptive, and for the 2025 Mains MPSC gave marks and a retotalling window instead of a key.
