TNPSC Group 2 Hall Ticket 2026: Download and Check
The TNPSC Group 2 and 2A preliminary hall ticket (Notification No. 07/2026) is listed on tnpsc.gov.in under Announcements. The Hall Ticket button opens the exam portal, where you enter your registration details, save the page as a PDF and print it. Check name, date of birth, photo, signature and centre, and write to the helpdesk the same day if anything is wrong.

The TNPSC Group 2 and 2A preliminary hall ticket is out. The commission's own announcements page lists "Hall Ticket for Preliminary Examination" under Combined Civil Services Examination-II (Group II and IIA Services), Notification No. 07/2026.
It is a download from your own login on the TNPSC exam portal, not from a news site or a forwarded PDF. Do it today, print it, and check every line before exam day.
Where to download the TNPSC Group 2 hall ticket
Open tnpsc.gov.in. The first block on the page is Announcements, and the Group II and IIA hall ticket sits there with a "Hall Ticket" button. It opens the commission's exam portal (apply.tnpscexams.in), which asks for your registration details. The exact fields are shown on the page, so enter them as the portal asks.
If you are on a phone, the portal recommends Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Use the browser's Share or Print option to save the page as a PDF rather than taking a screenshot, so the barcode and small print stay sharp.
Only the tnpsc.gov.in and apply.tnpscexams.in addresses count. Forwarded messages and alert sites that say "link here" can point elsewhere. If the portal itself shows nothing for you, wait and try again instead of using a third-party link.
Steps to download and save it
- Open tnpsc.gov.in and tap the Group II and IIA hall ticket under Announcements.
- Enter the registration details the portal asks for. If you forgot your user ID or password, use the "forgot" links on the portal's login page. Keep your application confirmation handy.
- Open the hall ticket and read it fully before you download it.
- Save it as a PDF, then print it clearly. Follow any printing instruction written on the hall ticket itself.

What to check on the hall ticket
A hall ticket is a copy of your application. If something looks wrong on it, the error usually came from the form, so compare it with your application and note the difference now, not at the gate.
| Check | What to look for |
|---|---|
| Name | Same spelling as your certificates |
| Date of birth | Same as your school certificate |
| Photo | Your face, clear and not cut |
| Signature | Present and readable |
| Exam centre | Full address, date and reporting time |

Never edit the hall ticket itself. If you need a clean photo or signature at an exact size for another form, use the Resize Photo to 50KB tool or the Signature Resizer.

Application ID and password: what to do if you forgot them
Your application or registration number is on the acknowledgement you saved after applying. The portal's login page has "forgot user ID" and "forgot password" links. The official page does not publish a rule such as "date of birth is the password", so do not guess; use those links or the helpdesk.
Should I print in Tamil or English?
Print whichever version the portal gives you. Do not retype or convert it. The invigilator matches the printed page with your identity proof, so a clear, complete print matters more than the language. Check the hall ticket for any colour or side instruction and follow it. Otherwise, a sharp print of the whole page is better than a blurry one.
Common mistakes and quick fixes
- Wrong application number error. Re-check the number on your application acknowledgement and look for a mistyped digit or an extra space. If you cannot find it, use the portal's forgot user ID option or write to the helpdesk.
- Mixing up exams. Group 2 and 2A, Group 4 and other recruitments each have their own hall ticket entry. Pick the one that matches the notification you applied under.
- Printing only part of the page. Set the scale to "fit to page" so the bottom instructions are not cut off.
- Waiting for the last evening. If the portal is slow, you still need time to print and find the centre.
- Relying on a screenshot. Save the PDF and keep a second copy on your phone.
Group 4 (Notification No. 11/2026) is a separate exam. If you also applied for it, read our TNPSC Group 4 2026 photo and signature checklist separately.
If something is wrong or missing
If the details are wrong or the hall ticket does not open, contact the commission. The TNPSC exam portal lists a toll-free helpline, 1800 419 0958 (10:00 am to 5:45 pm), and a helpdesk email, helpdesk@tnpscexams.in. Write your application number and a short description of the error, and attach a screenshot.
Do this at once. Do not sit the exam hoping the centre will fix it.
Checklist for the night before
- Hall ticket printed, all pages, name and photo clear.
- The photo identity proof the hall ticket or notification asks for. Check the list on the hall ticket itself.
- Centre address checked on the hall ticket, and the route and travel time planned.
- Pen and other items exactly as the instructions printed on the hall ticket say.
- A PDF copy on your phone in case the paper gets damaged.
If the commission ever asks you to re-upload a signature, the guide on getting a signature to 10-20KB covers the steps.
