CBSE Delays Class 10 Second-Board Results, Hundreds of Thousands Still Waiting

No confirmed release date has been given, which prevents students from finalising Class 11 admissions.

Overview

  • The second-phase Class 10 exams were held from May 15 to May 21, 2026, and results for 6,68,854 registered candidates have not been declared.
  • CBSE officials had suggested evaluation might finish by June 30, but the board has not issued any fresh notification with a firm result date.
  • Students and parents have taken to social platforms to protest the delay, reporting anxiety, missed admission deadlines and uncertainty over stream choices.
  • When released, provisional scorecards will be available on cbseresults.nic.in and cbse.gov.in and through DigiLocker, UMANG, SMS and IVRS, with verification and re-evaluation processes to follow.
  • The delay highlights implementation pressures from the new NEP-era two-exam Class 10 system and raises questions about the board's planning for the large cohort affected.
