The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is set to announce the Class 12 results for 2026, bringing an end to the anticipation for over 18 lakh students who appeared for the examinations. Officials confirm that the results are on schedule and are expected to be released in the third week of May 2026.
Accessing Your CBSE Class 12 Scorecard
Once declared, students will be able to access their provisional marksheets online through multiple official platforms. To check their scores, candidates will need to provide their roll number, school number, admit card ID, and date of birth.
- Official Websites: The results will be primarily available on the dedicated CBSE portals, including cbse.gov.in, results.cbse.nic.in, and cbse.nic.in.
- DigiLocker: Students can also access their marksheets via DigiLocker. After logging in or registering with a mobile number or Aadhaar, they must link their CBSE details. The marksheet will be accessible under the “Issued Documents” section.
- UMANG App: The results will also be available through the UMANG mobile application, offering another convenient access point.
Given the high traffic expected on result day, CBSE advises students to utilize these alternative access routes to avoid delays.
Important Information for Students
CBSE Controller of Examinations Sanyam Bhardwaj has dismissed recent reports of technical glitches or evaluation delays, reassuring students that the process is progressing smoothly. Students are urged to rely solely on official platforms for accurate updates.
While the online marksheet provided by CBSE will be provisional, it will be valid for college admissions and other official purposes where digital documents are accepted. Students will collect their original documents, including marksheets and passing certificates, from their respective schools at a later date.
Alongside the individual results, CBSE may release additional details such as the overall pass percentage and the list of toppers. For students who may be dissatisfied with their scores, provisions for verification, rechecking, or re-evaluation will be announced shortly after the results are declared. Detailed guidelines, including application timelines and procedures, will be published by the board.
Students are advised to keep their login credentials ready and download multiple copies of their provisional marksheet for future reference.
