CBSE 12th Result FAQs

When will the CBSE 12th Result 2026 be declared?
The CBSE Class 12 result is typically declared on the same day as Class 10, expected in mid-May 2026. Historically, the results are made live around 11:00 AM on the day of the announcement.

Where can I check the CBSE Class 12 result?
Results will be available on the official portals: results.cbse.nic.in, cbseresults.nic.in, and cbse.nic.in. Students can also use the DigiResults Android app or the UMANG platform for mobile access.

What credentials are required to check the 12th result?
Class 12 students need to enter:
• Roll Number
• School Number
• Admit Card ID

(Note: Unlike Class 10, Class 12 results typically do not require the Date of Birth for the online login portal).

Is the DigiLocker marksheet valid for college admissions?
Absolutely. The University Grants Commission (UGC) has directed all universities to accept digital documents from DigiLocker as valid proof. You can use these for your initial college applications and counseling (like CUET or JoSAA) while waiting for the physical marksheet from your school.

What if I fail in one subject?
If you fail in one subject, you will be placed in the "Compartment" (now called "Supplementary") category. CBSE allows you to appear for the Supplementary Exam, usually held in July 2026. Passing this exam ensures you do not lose an academic year and can still secure admission for the current session.
