Telegram's MTProto has, to my knowledge, never undergone any security audits. It's a roll-your-own-encryption, which is always dubious when you're unwilling to have it audited. I would never suggest Telegram, even for cleartext communications.
Agreed, I will edit the comment
Are telegram's secret chats using MTProto? Also i have seen many claims saying it have been audited. They do public bug hunt contest with huge sum as reward to test this afaik
