The minimum passing mark in BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026 is 35 out of 100 in each subject, and students must also score at least 28 marks out of 80 in the theory paper for language subjects to be declared passed.

BSE Telangana will conduct the SSC Annual Supplementary Examination (ASE) 2026 from June 22, 2026. This exam is for students who failed in one or more subjects in the March 2026 SSC main exam. Only the external theory papers are re-conducted — internal assessment marks from the March main exam are automatically carried forward and added to the supplementary theory score to calculate the final marks in each subject.

  • Minimum overall pass: 35 marks out of 100 in each subject separately.
  • Language subjects theory minimum: 28 out of 80 for First Language and English; 16 out of 80 for Second Language.
  • Non-language subject theory minimum: 14 out of 40 per paper for Mathematics, Physical Science, Biological Science, and Social Studies.
  • No minimum in internal assessment marks — internal scores from the March main exam are carried forward as-is.
  • Grade D (35–40 marks) is the minimum qualifying grade; Grade E means fail in that subject.

Subject-Wise Minimum Passing Marks for BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026

The Telangana SSC examination covers seven subjects, each carrying 100 marks. Students must score at least 35 out of 100 in every subject. The table below shows the marks distribution and the minimum theory marks required per subject:

Subject Total Marks Theory Marks Internal Marks Min. Theory Marks to Pass Min. Total to Pass
First Language (Telugu / Hindi / Urdu) 100 80 20 28 out of 80 35 out of 100
Second Language 100 80 20 16 out of 80 35 out of 100
English (Third Language) 100 80 20 28 out of 80 35 out of 100
Mathematics (Paper 1 + Paper 2) 100 80 (40 + 40) 20 (10 + 10) 14 out of 40 per paper 35 out of 100
Physical Science (Paper 1 + Paper 2) 100 80 (40 + 40) 20 (10 + 10) 14 out of 40 per paper 35 out of 100
Biological Science (Paper 1 + Paper 2) 100 80 (40 + 40) 20 (10 + 10) 14 out of 40 per paper 35 out of 100
Social Studies (Paper 1 + Paper 2) 100 80 (40 + 40) 20 (10 + 10) 14 out of 40 per paper 35 out of 100

Theory and Internal Marks in the BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary Exam

The Telangana SSC follows an 80:20 marks structure — 80 marks for theory and 20 marks for internal assessment in every subject. In the Annual Supplementary Examination, only the external theory papers are held afresh. Internal marks awarded during the March 2026 main exam are not re-examined and are directly added to the supplementary theory score.

  • Language subjects (First Language, Second Language, English): One theory paper of 80 marks plus 20 marks of internal assessment = 100 marks total.
  • Non-language subjects (Mathematics, Physical Science, Biological Science, Social Studies): Two papers of 40 marks each plus 10 marks of internal per paper = 100 marks total per subject.
  • No minimum pass mark in internal assessment — only the theory paper minimum threshold applies. A student with 0 internal marks can still pass if theory marks and total both meet the minimums.

Second Language Minimum Passing Marks in Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026

BSE Telangana applies a lower theory pass threshold specifically for the Second Language subject. Students need only 16 marks out of 80 (20%) in the Second Language theory paper to be eligible to pass, compared to 28 out of 80 (35%) required in all other subjects. However, the combined total — supplementary theory marks plus internal marks carried forward — must still reach 35 out of 100 to earn a passing grade in Second Language.


BSE Telangana SSC 2026 Grading System

BSE Telangana uses an eight-point letter grade scale for SSC results. Grade D (35–40 marks) is the minimum qualifying grade — any student scoring Grade E in a subject is declared failed in that subject and becomes eligible to appear in the supplementary exam. The full grading scale is as follows:

Grade Marks Range (out of 100) Result
A1 91–100 Excellent — Pass
A2 81–90 Very Good — Pass
B1 71–80 Good — Pass
B2 61–70 Above Average — Pass
C1 51–60 Average — Pass
C2 41–50 Below Average — Pass
D 35–40 Pass (Minimum Qualifying Grade)
E Below 35 Fail

How to Calculate Your Total Score in BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026

Your final marks in each subject = marks scored in the supplementary theory paper + internal marks carried forward from the March 2026 main exam. Both conditions — the theory minimum and the overall total minimum — must be met to pass a subject.

  • Language subjects: ASE Theory Score (out of 80) + Internal from March Main Exam (out of 20) = Subject Total (out of 100).
  • Non-language subjects: Paper 1 ASE Theory (out of 40) + Paper 2 ASE Theory (out of 40) + Internal from March Main Exam (out of 20) = Subject Total (out of 100).
  • Example (Mathematics): A student who earned 15 internal marks in the main exam and scores 22 in Paper 1 and 18 in Paper 2 of ASE — total = 22 + 18 + 15 = 55 marks (Grade C1 — Pass). Both papers also individually exceed the 14-mark theory minimum.
  • Important: A student who achieves 35 or more in the combined total but scores below 14 in either paper of a non-language subject will still be declared failed in that subject. Both the paper-level theory minimum and the subject total minimum must be satisfied simultaneously.

What Happens if You Fail a Subject in BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026?

Students who fail to meet the minimum passing marks in any subject in the June 2026 supplementary exam will be declared failed in those subjects. They can appear again in the next BSE Telangana SSC Advanced Supplementary Examination. The SSC pass certificate is not issued until all subjects are cleared. Students who pass all subjects in the June 2026 supplementary exam receive a pass certificate with a note on the marks memo indicating that they appeared in the supplementary examination.

BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026 Passing Marks FAQs

Ques. What is the minimum passing mark in BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026?

Ans. Students must score at least 35 marks out of 100 in each subject. They must also meet the theory minimum — 28 out of 80 for language subjects (16 out of 80 for Second Language) and 14 out of 40 per paper for non-language subjects such as Mathematics, Physical Science, Biological Science, and Social Studies.

Ques. Are internal marks re-examined in the BSE Telangana SSC supplementary exam?

Ans. No. Internal marks are not re-examined in the supplementary exam. The internal marks awarded during the March 2026 SSC main exam are carried forward and added to the theory marks scored in the ASE to give the final subject total.

Ques. What is the minimum theory pass mark for Second Language in Telangana SSC Supplementary?

Ans. For Second Language, the theory minimum is 16 out of 80 (20%), which is lower than the 28 out of 80 (35%) required for all other subjects. The overall subject pass total of 35 out of 100 still applies regardless of this lower theory threshold.

Ques. When does BSE Telangana SSC Supplementary 2026 exam begin?

Ans. The BSE Telangana SSC Annual Supplementary Examination (ASE) June 2026 is scheduled to begin on June 22, 2026. Students should download the official subject-wise timetable from bse.telangana.gov.in for paper-wise dates and reporting times.

Ques. Which grade is the minimum pass in BSE Telangana SSC 2026?

Ans. Grade D, corresponding to 35–40 marks out of 100, is the minimum qualifying grade in BSE Telangana SSC. Grade E (below 35 marks) means the student has failed in that subject.

Ques. What happens if a student scores 35 or more in total but misses the theory minimum?

Ans. The student will still be declared failed in that subject. Both conditions must be met to pass: the theory paper minimum (28 out of 80 for language subjects, 14 out of 40 per paper for non-language subjects) and the overall subject total of 35 out of 100. Falling short on either condition results in a fail grade.
