CBSE Class 10 & 12 Results Announced: How to Check via Roll Number or DigiLocker

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is poised to reveal the 2026 board examination results for Class 10 and 12 students. Over 43 lakhs of students are eagerly awaiting their scores, which will be published on the official website, cbseresults.nic.in. The timing of result release varies between classes—Class 10 is expected by mid-April (April 15-20), and Class 12 could follow around May 12 to May 20. These dates are subject to change without notice.

Students can check their scores online through various portals, including cbseresults.nic.in, results.nic.in, and cbse.gov.in. Additionally, those with a DigiLocker account may opt for another method to access their results. Let's explore how to use both traditional portals and the DigiLocker system.

How to Check via Roll Number on Official Portal

To check your CBSE Class 10 or 12 scores using a roll number, visit results.cbse.nic.in. Here's a step-by-step guide:

• Click on the "CBSE Class 10/12 Results 2026" link.
• Enter your Roll Number, School Number, and Admit Card ID.
• Submit to view or download your marksheet.

How to Check via DigiLocker?

Starting with a tech-savvy approach, the DigiLocker system offers an easy alternative. Follow these steps:

• Visit digilocker.gov.in.
• Enter your mobile number or Aadhaar number.
• Navigate to the 'Issued Documents' section and click on the 'CBSE Class 10th Result' link.
• Fill in all required details and download your scorecard for future reference.

Apart from these methods, CBSE has a policy of awarding grace marks to students who fall just short. This applies only to subjects declared as 'difficult' by an expert panel under the Moderation Policy. There's also an opportunity for re-evaluation if you receive fewer marks than expected. Apply within 2 to 3 days after the results are announced.

The CBSE board's decision to release scores early has both advantages and implications for students, ensuring a smoother academic journey. This move allows time for critical subject improvements among Class 10 students and sets the stage for better planning ahead of upcoming boards in May.
