The Telangana Board of Intermediate Education (TGBIE) today, October 17, 2026, announced the examination fee payment schedule for the Intermediate Public Examinations (IPE) March 2027 session. The schedule, released via a press release dated October 15, 2026, outlines the deadlines for students to submit their fees, including provisions for late payments.

This schedule applies to many candidates, including first-year and second-year regular students, those who failed in general and vocational courses, and private candidates in Arts and Humanities groups who are seeking an attendance exemption. The fee payment process for regular students will be managed through the administration office of their respective junior colleges.

IPE March 2027 Fee Payment Deadlines

The TGBIE has established a tiered payment system, with increasing late fees for submissions made after the initial deadline. The regular fee payment window, without any late fee, is set from October 26 to November 9, 2026. Subsequent payment periods will incur late fees ranging from ₹100 to ₹2,000.

The final opportunity for all eligible candidates to pay the examination fee is from December 9 to December 14, 2026, which will include a late fee of ₹2,000. Students are advised to adhere to these dates to avoid additional charges.

Examination Fee Structure for Regular Students

The examination fees vary depending on the course and year of study. First-year General Regular students are required to pay ₹540. For first-year Vocational Regular students, the fee is ₹890, which comprises ₹540 for theory, ₹250 for practicals, and ₹100 for English practicals.

Similarly, second-year General Arts students will pay ₹540. Second-year General Science and Vocational students have an examination fee of ₹890, which includes ₹540 for theory, ₹250 for practicals, and ₹100 for English practicals. Another source indicates a revised fee structure where regular students’ examination fee is ₹530 for Arts streams and ₹870 for Science and Vocational streams, with the ₹870 fee for Science and Vocational streams including ₹240 for Science practical examinations and ₹100 for English practicals.

Provisions for Private Candidates and Attendance Exemption

TGBIE has also invited applications from private candidates who seek exemption from attendance requirements for the IPE March 2027 examinations. Eligible private candidates can submit their applications online through the official portal, tgbie.cgg.gov.in, until October 31, 2026. The application fee for attendance exemption for private candidates is ₹500.

These candidates are required to provide supporting documents, including their Class 10 pass certificate and Transfer Certificate (TC). Students with a one-year gap after their Secondary School Certificate (SSC) are eligible for the first-year IPE March 2027. Candidates with a two-year or more gap after SSC can apply for both first-year and second-year examinations in March 2027. The attendance exemption facility is also extended to certain candidates who failed second-year examinations and wish to modify their academic group. In addition, ex-students can reappear for failed subjects irrespective of the time passed since their previous attempt, as the five-year restriction has been removed by the TGBIE.
