The Central Board of Secondary Education has confirmed that the Class 10 and 12 results will not be released today, May 2. This comes after several media reports and social media posts claimed the results would be declared on Friday.
A senior CBSE official, speaking anonymously, said, “Results are not being released today and maybe not till this weekend too.”
No formal statement or date has been issued by the board as of now. The official clarified that students should not rely on circulating reports or speculative timelines.
The importance of these results cannot be overstated. For Class 12 students, these scores determine eligibility for university admissions and competitive entrance exams. For Class 10 students, the marks will decide their stream selection — a crucial fork in their academic journey.
However, the board reiterated that it has not made any announcement regarding a result date. Last year, CBSE declared the results on 13 May 2024. Going by that timeline, results may still be more than a week away.
CBSE has also urged students to trust only the board’s official sources for updates.
For SMS access, students can send either “cbse10” or “cbse12” followed by their Roll Number, School Code, and Centre Number to 7738299899.
The board has also stopped releasing merit lists since the 2022–23 academic year, aiming to reduce unhealthy competition among students. However, CBSE will continue to publish the overall and gender-wise pass percentages.
In 2024, the overall pass percentage for Class 10 was 93.60%, and for Class 12, it stood at 87.98%. These figures reflected a modest improvement from the previous year.
Based on recent trends, education experts anticipate a similar or slightly higher pass rate this year. Many expect top-performing students to achieve perfect scores.
As students across the country refresh result pages and scroll through trending hashtags, CBSE has one clear message: wait for the official word. Misinformation only adds to the pressure in what is already a high-stakes moment for millions.
Until then, students, parents, and teachers alike are advised to stay patient — and avoid speculation.
