CBSE results: how to check Class 10 and 12 marks safely

How CBSE announces results

CBSE publishes Class 10 and Class 12 result updates through its official channels. On result day, students should use the official CBSE results portal (opens in a new tab), CBSE notices (opens in a new tab) and DigiLocker (opens in a new tab)—not links shared in random social posts.

A result announcement and a detailed post-result notice are not always the same thing. If CBSE opens verification, re-evaluation or related services, the board publishes a separate notice with the applicable dates and process.

What details do you need?

The exact fields can vary by year, but students are commonly asked for their roll number, school number and admit-card ID. Keep your admit card nearby before results are announced.

If the official page asks for a detail you do not have, check your admit card or contact the school rather than entering random values into unofficial result websites.

Where can I check CBSE results?

Start from the official CBSE results website when the relevant examination result has been announced. Check the specific result page for the fields required for your class and examination year. School staff can help you identify missing roll-number or admit-card details.

A result screen and an issued digital marksheet are different things. After CBSE makes an academic document available, DigiLocker users can look under Issued Documents. The National Academic Depository (opens in a new tab) also explains how to retrieve an eligible document through Browse Documents > Education by selecting the issuer and entering examination details. Issued document availability depends on the board's records; do not assume a new marksheet appears as soon as a result is announced.

If you only want to check your marks, use the official results portal. If you need a marksheet for school or college, use DigiLocker or CBSE's official guidance on academic certificates.

What if the result website is slow?

Heavy traffic can make official sites slow immediately after results are released. Refreshing repeatedly or opening many tabs usually does not help much. Try another official channel such as DigiLocker if the document is available, or ask your school.

What about re-evaluation or marksheet corrections?

Do not treat an old year's verification or re-evaluation deadline as current. CBSE publishes separate instructions and deadlines for these processes. Consult the notice for your examination year rather than following an old screenshot or a paid 'result correction' advertisement.

Avoid result-day scams

Do not pay anyone to 'unlock' results, share your DigiLocker OTP, or trust a claimed result date unless CBSE has published it. Be especially careful with links that ask for banking details, app installs or remote-screen access. Type the official government domain yourself before supplying student details.
