The short answer

The TNPSC portal lists the Group II/IIA preliminary examination for the forenoon of 1 November 2026 and shows a hall-ticket download link; applications for this notification are already closed.

The official exam listing

TNPSC’s portal lists Notification 07/2026 for the Combined Civil Services Examination–II (Group II and IIA Services). It records the notification date as 11 August 2026, the application window from 11 August to 9 September and the preliminary examination for 1 November in the forenoon.

The same listing provides a hall-ticket download action. This is an examination-stage update for registered candidates, not a new invitation to apply.

What to check before exam day

Download the hall ticket through the official TNPSC portal. Check the candidate’s name, registration number, centre, reporting time and permitted identification documents. If a detail is incorrect, use the Commission’s official help route rather than waiting until reaching the centre.

Group II/IIA is not the same process as Group IV Notification 11/2026, which remains open until 5 November. Check the notification number before following a deadline or downloading a hall ticket.
