• Pay at SI level: ₹42,300–1,15,270 for the Sub Inspector posts; ₹38,890–1,12,510 for Station Fire Officer and Deputy Jailor.
• Notification 234 — SCT Police Constable (Driver) 20 and (Mechanics) 7, men only, pay ₹24,280–72,850.
• Notification 279 — SCT Assistant Sub Inspector, Fingerprint Bureau, 23 posts, pay ₹33,750–99,310.
• All posts are Stipendiary Cadet Trainee (SCT) entries across four departments: Police, Special Protection Force, Fire & Disaster Response, and Prisons & Correctional Services.
• The notifications state the vacancy numbers are tentative and can change without notice.
• Constable and AR posts are further split district-wise and commissionerate-wise between Local Reservation and Direct Recruitment — that table is in the notification, and it decides which district you compete in.

⚠️ One application covers all four notifications

• There is ONE application form for this entire recruitment. It collects information for every post across all four notifications (189, 225, 234 and 279, all dated 29 July 2026).
• You must NOT register more than one application form. Doing so is prohibited by the notification.
• The Physical Measurement and Physical Efficiency Test is conducted ONCE. The same readings and scores count for every post you applied to across notifications issued within three months.
• Because of that saving, applying for more than one post earns a rebate — ₹50 per additional post beyond the first among the five post groups, and ₹100 per additional post beyond one notification for other candidates.
• Give your preference between post codes clearly in the Part-II application. Preference is what decides which post you are considered against.

Who can apply

• Constable level (post codes 21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28): Intermediate or an equivalent examination recognised by the State Government, passed as on 29 July 2026.
• Sub Inspector level (post codes 11 to 19): a degree from any university in India established under a Central or State Act, or an institution recognised by the UGC, as on 29 July 2026.
• Fire Fighter (post code 26) additionally needs a valid Light Motor Vehicle driving licence as on the notification date.
• A qualification higher than the one prescribed is treated on par — it is neither a bar nor an advantage.
• Gender: post codes 21, 22, 25 and 26 are open to men and women; 23 and 27 to men only; 28 to women only.
• Age at constable level: 18 and under 22 as on 1 July 2026 — plus a FIVE-YEAR raise in the upper limit for all uniformed services under Telangana GO Ms No. 87 of 18 May 2026, which applies on top of that limit.
• Age at Sub Inspector level: 21 and under 25 as on 1 July 2026, plus the same five years.
• Home Guards on duty for at least 360 days in the last two years and still serving: 18 to under 40, plus the same five years.
• Women who are widowed, divorced or judicially separated and not remarried: SC and ST 18 to under 40, all others 18 to under 35, plus the same five years. Documentary proof is required.
• Telangana state government employees get relaxation equal to their length of regular service, capped at five years.

⚠️ The form does not check your age — you do

• Because the relaxations differ so widely, TSLPRB does NOT validate age in the online application at all. The notification puts the responsibility squarely on the candidate.
• An under-age or over-age candidate's application is rejected at any point in the process, and TSLPRB states it is not responsible for that.
• The fee, once paid, is never refunded — including in that case.
• Work out your own eligibility date before paying: the base limit is on 1 July 2026, the qualification cut-off is 29 July 2026, and the five-year uniformed-services relaxation sits on top of the base limit.

Selection — three stages and negative marking

• Stage 1, Preliminary Written Test: one paper, three hours, 200 questions for 200 marks, answered on an OMR sheet with a blue or black ballpoint pen.
• ⚠️ Negative marking is 20% of the marks for that question on a wrong answer. Leaving a question blank scores zero — so a blind guess costs you a fifth of a mark and a blank costs nothing.
• Qualifying marks in the prelims: 30% for OC including EWS, 25% for BC, 20% for SC, ST, ex-servicemen and Home Guards.
• Stage 2, PMT/PET, in this order — run first, then measurements, then long jump and shot put.
• Run: men 1,600 m within 7 minutes 15 seconds (ex-servicemen 9 minutes 30 seconds); women 800 m within 5 minutes 20 seconds. It is qualifying-only for post codes 21, 26, 27 and 28, but CARRIES MARKS for 22, 23 and 25 — and for 22 and 25 those marks are normalised across gender groups before the final merit list.
• Height: men not less than 167.6 cm, women not less than 152.5 cm. For Scheduled Tribes and aboriginal tribes of the Agency Areas of Adilabad, Komarambheem-Asifabad, Mancherial, Nagarkurnool, Khammam, Bhadradri-Kothagudem, Mulugu, Mahabubabad and Warangal: men 160 cm, women 150 cm.
• Long jump: men 4 m (ex-servicemen 3.5 m), women 2.5 m. Shot put: men 6 m with a 7.26 kg shot, women 4 m with a 4 kg shot. Both are qualifying only.
• Stage 3, Final Written Examination: three hours — 200 marks for post codes 21, 26, 27 and 28; 100 marks for 22, 23 and 25. Qualifying marks: 40% OC including EWS, 35% BC, 30% SC, ST and ex-servicemen.
• Papers are set in English-Telugu and English-Urdu. Where a translation is ambiguous or misspelt, the English version is final.
• Appearing at every stage is compulsory. Absence at any one of them disqualifies you.
• Certificate verification comes last, and eligibility is checked against originals only after you have qualified.

Medical standards

• Distant vision 6/6 in each eye; near vision 0/5 Snellen in each eye.
• Each eye must have a full field of vision.
• Colour blindness, squint, or any morbid condition of either eye or its lids is a disqualification.
• You must be in sound health and free from any bodily defect or infirmity that would make you unfit for the post.

Certificates to have ready before the window opens

How to apply, and when

1. ⚠️ The exact application dates have NOT been announced. TSLPRB says they will be intimated through a separate press release. Watch www.tgprb.in — no jobs website knows them yet.
2. Registration is on www.tgprb.in using your MOBILE NUMBER as your user ID. Use a number that will stay with you and in your own custody for the whole recruitment.
3. Fee is concessional for SC and ST candidates who are local to Telangana; the actual amount is shown inside the online application rather than printed in the notification.
4. ⚠️ Paying the fee is not applying. If you fill the form and pay but never press submit, the application is rejected without notice — and the fee is not refunded.
5. Upload a passport-size photo and specimen signature combined as one JPG file.
6. A hall ticket does not mean your candidature is cleared. Admission at every stage is provisional, and TSLPRB can reject a candidature at any stage without notice.
7. Part-II of the application — with scanned certificates — is uploaded only after you qualify in the Preliminary Written Test, on dates announced later.
