The answer keys for the KVS (Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan) and NVS (Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti) Tier-1 exams conducted in 2026 are officially out. Candidates
who participated in the teaching and non-teaching positions' examinations can now access these keys. This release is a significant step for all applicants, allowing them to evaluate their performance and estimate their scores. The availability of the answer keys is crucial for transparency and allows candidates to understand the correct answers to the questions asked during the exam. The official release enables a fair assessment of each candidate's performance.
Downloading the Keys
To download the KVS and NVS answer keys, candidates need to visit the official websites of KVS and NVS. Look for the dedicated section related to the 2026 exam cycle. The download process generally involves a straightforward procedure, often requiring candidates to log in using their credentials, such as registration number and date of birth or password. Once logged in, the answer keys are usually available in a downloadable PDF format. Ensure you have a stable internet connection for a smooth download. Save the files to your device for future reference. Carefully follow all instructions provided on the official website to avoid any errors during the download.
OMR Sheet Access
Along with the answer keys, candidates can also access their OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) sheets. The OMR sheet reflects the responses marked by the candidate during the examination. This feature is provided to ensure candidates can cross-check their answers against the official answer key. To view their OMR sheets, candidates usually need to follow a similar login process to the one used for downloading the answer keys. Once logged in, there should be an option to view or download their individual OMR sheet. Verify that the responses recorded on the OMR sheet are accurate according to your marked responses. It is essential to carefully examine the OMR sheet to identify any discrepancies or errors that might have occurred during the evaluation process.
Raising Objections Process
Candidates who find any discrepancies or have objections to the answers provided in the official answer key can raise their concerns within a specified timeframe. This challenge process allows candidates to submit their objections along with supporting evidence, such as reference materials, textbooks, or other authoritative sources. The process usually involves filling out an objection form, specifying the question number, the answer key's answer, the candidate's proposed answer, and providing a detailed justification. A fee may be required for each objection raised. Submit your objections through the official portal before the deadline. After the objection period, the authorities will review the objections and may revise the final answer key based on valid claims. The final answer key is used for the evaluation of the results.
Challenge Fee Details
The process of raising objections may involve a fee per question challenged. The exact amount of this fee is usually specified in the official notification released by KVS and NVS. Candidates must pay this fee to ensure their objections are considered. The payment methods accepted, like online payment gateways, are detailed on the official website. Ensure the payment is completed successfully before submitting your objection. Note that this fee is usually non-refundable, irrespective of the outcome of the challenge. Therefore, it is important to raise objections only if you have a valid point backed by substantial evidence. Review the fee structure to understand the associated costs.
Result Preparation
After the objection period, the authorities evaluate all challenges and release the final answer key. The final answer key is then used to evaluate the candidates' responses and prepare the results. The marks are awarded based on the correct answers marked by the candidate as per the final answer key. Results are usually announced on the official website. Keep checking the official websites of KVS and NVS for result announcements and further updates. Details regarding the merit list, cut-off marks, and further selection process are generally announced with the results. Candidates are advised to stay updated through the official channels for accurate and timely information regarding the results and subsequent procedures.
