The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has initiated the release of Class 12 results following post-result services, including mark verification and re-evaluation. As of Sunday, outcomes for nearly 147,000 students have been announced, accounting for approximately 87% of the 168,000 candidates who applied for these services after the initial results were declared on May 13.
Revised marksheets for students whose scores have changed will be accessible via DigiLocker. The board stated that the remaining applications are being processed in phases and will be declared over the next few days. This process ensures that students receive updated academic records promptly.
Earlier, on May 13, CBSE announced the overall Class 12 results for about 1.77 million candidates. The pass percentage stood at 85.20%, marking a decrease from the previous year's 88.39% and representing the lowest pass rate in seven years. Students had the opportunity to apply for scanned copies of their evaluated answer books between May 19 and May 25, followed by applications for verification and re-evaluation from June 2 to June 7.
Of the 168,000 Class 12 CBSE students who sought verification of marks and re-evaluation, results for nearly 147,000 students, representing about 87% of applicants, have been announced. We expect the remaining results to be declared in the next couple of days.
According to board data, over 400,000 students had requested scanned copies of their answer sheets. More than 160,000 students filed requests for verification or re-evaluation involving over 380,000 answer books. CBSE emphasized that the post-result services platform operates under the supervision of technical experts from the Digital India Corporation, IIT Kanpur, and IIT Madras to maintain system integrity and prevent unauthorized access.
Students whose requests resulted in a "No-change" outcome will be offered an opportunity to inspect their answer books at the concerned regional office. The schedule for these inspections will be announced later. This development follows reports that CBSE had recently shifted its re-evaluation process to infrastructure under its direct control, discontinuing the use of a third-party platform.
The outcomes will be released in a phased manner as and when the processing of individual applications is completed. Today, the results of around 87% of candidates who have applied for re-evaluation and/or verification of issues observed have been declared. The outcomes for the remaining candidates will also be released in phases and the entire process is expected to be completed soon.
