Overview
The TG ICET Counselling 2026 notification has been issued by the Telangana Council of Higher Education (TGCHE) for candidates seeking admission to MBA and MCA programmes in Telangana.

Candidates who have qualified in TG ICET 2026 must complete online registration, pay the processing fee, book a certificate-verification slot and exercise web options through tgicet.nic.in.
