  A detailed analysis is presented of the precise values of the Tsallis
parameters obtained in $p-p$ collisions for identified particles, pions, kaons
and protons at the LHC at three beam energies $\sqrt{s} = 0.9, 2.76$ and $7$
TeV. Interpolated data at $\sqrt{s} = $ 5.02 TeV have also been included. It is
shown that the Tsallis formula provides reasonably good fits to the $p_T$
distributions in $p-p$ collisions at the LHC using three parameters $dN/dy$,
$T$ and $q$. However, the parameters $T$ and $q$ depend on the particle species
and are different for pions, kaons and protons. As a consequence there is no
$m_T$ scaling and also no universality of the parameters for different particle
species.
