The Telangana Public Service Commission (TGPSC) has directed all registered candidates to update and verify their One Time Registration (OTR) details before applying for any upcoming recruitment notifications.
The Commission has clarified that only candidates who complete the OTR updation process will be eligible to apply for future posts.
The deadline for completing the OTR verification has been extended to February 25, 2026, following multiple representations from candidates.
According to the Commission, the decision was taken due to revisions in the categorisation of Scheduled Castes and repeated requests from applicants seeking corrections in their personal and educational information.
TGPSC has stated that the OTR database will serve as the primary and base record throughout the recruitment process, making it essential for candidates to ensure the accuracy of their details.
The OTR updation window was opened on January 19, 2026, and was initially scheduled to close on February 9, 2026. However, in view of the large number of correction requests and to ensure error-free records, the Commission has extended the deadline by over two weeks.
Candidates who fail to complete the updation and verification process within the revised timeline will not be allowed to apply for future TGPSC recruitment notifications.
While most entries in the OTR form remain locked, candidates are allowed to update specific details such as additional qualifications, correspondence address, Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) status, Non-Creamy Layer details, mobile number, and email ID. All other information will remain uneditable and will be treated as final for recruitment purposes.
Candidates can complete the OTR updation by following these steps:
TGPSC has reiterated that only one OTR profile is allowed per candidate, and multiple registrations are strictly prohibited. The Commission has also cautioned that no further requests for corrections or deadline extensions will be entertained once the updation window closes.
Candidates planning to apply for future TGPSC recruitment notifications are advised to complete the OTR verification process well in advance to avoid last-minute technical issues.
