UP TGT Cut-Off 2026: Subject-Wise and Category-Wise Marks

The UP TGT cut-off is the last selected candidate's marks in each subject, category and institution type. UPESSC released the cut-offs for Advt. No. 01/2022 with the final result on 28 July 2026, out of 500 marks, separately for boys' and girls' institutions.

The figures below are as reported from those result notices and are indicative. Cut-offs change every cycle with difficulty, vacancies and the number of applicants, so treat them as a benchmark only and aim for a clear margin above them.

The English result for 557 posts was not declared with this list because of a pending High Court petition, so no English cut-off is shown. Hindi and Sanskrit were later handled through separate revised result notices, so check the latest notice for those subjects before using these figures.

Decimal cut-offs such as 362.88 suggest a weightage applied to some candidate groups. Read the notes in the official result PDF for your subject before comparing scores.

What Affects the UP TGT Cut-Off

  • Posts in your subject and category: Small-cadre subjects like Commerce and Music had cut-offs near the top of the scale.

  • Paper difficulty: Science cut-offs were far lower than Hindi or Sanskrit in the same cycle.

  • Pattern change: The revised paper is out of 360 with negative marking, so these figures will not convert directly.

How to Set Your Target Score

Until a cut-off exists for the new pattern, judge yourself by percentage. In the 2022 cycle, unreserved boys' cut-offs ranged from about 73% of the maximum in Science to about 98% in Commerce, and most subjects sat above 80%. Find your subject in the table, convert its cut-off to a percentage, and aim to stay clearly above it, consistently, in full-length practice tests. In subjects where the cut-off was already close to full marks, accuracy is the only target that matters. Official result PDFs are on the UPESSC official website.
