The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has initiated the registration and List of Candidates (LOC) processes for the 2027 Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations. To prevent procedural errors, the Board has instructed schools to rigorously verify student demographic details, including names, dates of birth, and subject codes, against official admission registers. Corrections must be managed through affiliated schools rather than a public portal. On November 5, 2026, the CBSE addressed previous concerns regarding scheduling by releasing the official datesheet for the 2027 board examinations. Both Class 10 and Class 12 exams are scheduled to commence on February 16, 2027, with all sessions beginning at 10:30 am. Registration data shows that over 26.5 lakh students have registered for Class 10 and over 19.8 lakh students for Class 12. The Board will oversee examinations across 83 subjects for Class 10 and 121 subjects for Class 12. The timetable was developed by analyzing more than 40,000 subject combinations to prevent scheduling clashes. The schedule was designed to provide adequate gaps between commonly paired subjects and to ensure exams are completed before major entrance tests. Furthermore, the Board stated the timing aims to minimize the prolonged absence of teachers from schools during the evaluation period. The date sheets were released 101 days in advance to allow students sufficient preparation time. Class 10 examinations are expected to conclude by March 9, 2027, while Class 12 examinations will continue until April 9, 2027. Regarding practical assessments, schools in winter-bound or hilly regions will conduct exams between November 9 and December 19, 2026, while schools in general academic sessions will begin on January 1, 2027. To ensure transparency, the Board has mandated that schools upload geotagged and time-stamped group photographs of every practical examination batch via a dedicated app-based link.
