CBSE 2026-27 examination registration and schedule updates

Overview

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has initiated the registration and List of Candidates (LOC) process for the 2026-27 academic year, emphasizing rigorous data verification to avoid previous operational difficulties.

As the board manages these processes, it is also preparing for the 2026 examination cycle. Class 12 results for the 2026 session are expected around the second week of May, following exams scheduled for April 10, 2026. Class 10 results are anticipated to be released before the final week of April 2026 due to a revised evaluation timeline.

For the 2027 academic session, the board has released subject-wise Sample Question Papers (SQPs) and Marking Schemes for Classes 10 and 12 via the official CBSE Academic website. These resources are designed to provide a template for uniformity and ensure proper curricula coverage. Specifically, sample papers are available for 61 subjects for Class 10 and 79 subjects for Class 12. The board confirmed there are no changes to the assessment scheme, question paper patterns, or passing criteria for the 2026–27 session; students must still secure at least 33 per cent in each subject to pass.

Regarding the 2027 examination schedule, the official date sheet is now expected to be released between October and December 2026. Tentative timelines suggest Class 10 first phase exams will occur between February and March 2027, with a second phase in May 2027. Class 12 examinations are expected to take place from February to April 2027. Practical exams and admit cards are anticipated around January 2027.
