Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) has released the provisional answer key and candidates’ response sheets for the 41st Maharashtra State Eligibility Test (MH SET) 2026. The interim answer key is available on the official MH SET website, setexam.unipune.ac.in, allowing candidates to compare their responses with the published answers and assess their likely performance.

Alongside the provisional answer key, SPPU has also opened an online objection window, enabling candidates to challenge specific questions or answers. This process is crucial for candidates to raise concerns before the preparation of the final answer key, which will incorporate valid objections.
Raising Objections to MH SET 2026 Answer Key
Candidates wishing to challenge the provisional answer key for the 41st MH SET 2026 must do so through the online objection window available on the official website. The deadline for submitting these objections will be specified on setexam.unipune.ac.in. Each challenged question or answer requires supporting evidence in PDF format, submitted separately for each concern.
A non-refundable fee of Rs 200 is applicable for every question or answer challenged. This payment can be made online using a credit card, debit card, or net banking. Candidates can select multiple questions or answers for challenge, but the online feedback submission can only be completed once, and the number of challenges cannot be altered after the payment process begins.

The MH SET Mathematical Science Admit Card 2026 was released on 15 October 2026, issued by Savitribai Phule Pune University. This admit card was exclusively available online, requiring candidates to use their application number and date of birth for download.
