Hey, CBSE students! You might’ve heard rumors that the CBSE Class 10 and 12 Results 2025 are out, but hold off on the celebrations—they’re not released yet as of May 1, 2025. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to announce results for over 42 lakh students in the first or second week of May, possibly as early as May 2 or between May 7–12. With exams wrapped up in April, everyone’s eager to know their scores. Let’s clear the confusion, show you how to check your results when they drop, and share what’s next!
Where to Check CBSE Result 2025
Once the results are live, you can find them on these official platforms:
You can also use SMS (send “cbse10” or “cbse12” with your roll number, school number, and center number to 7738299899) or call the Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) at 24300699 (with your area code, 30 paise/minute). You’ll need your roll number, school number, admit card ID, and date of birth from your 2025 CBSE admit card.
How to Check CBSE Result 2025
When results are announced, here’s how to check your scores:
- Visit results.cbse.nic.in or cbse.gov.in.
- Click “CBSE Class 10 Result 2025” or “CBSE Class 12 Result 2025.”
- Enter your roll number, school number, admit card ID, and date of birth (DDMMYYYY format).
- Hit “Submit” to see your marksheet.
- Look for your Pass/Fail Status—“PASS” means 33%+ in each subject; “COMP” means you need a supplementary exam for one/two failed subjects.
- Download and print the provisional marksheet.
For DigiLocker, go to cbse.digitallocker.gov.in, select Class 10 or 12, enter your school code, roll number, and a 6-digit PIN from your school, verify with an OTP, and download your marksheet from “Issued Documents.” Schools will provide original marksheets later.
Result Format and Passing Criteria
Your digital marksheet will show:
- Your name, roll number, and school details
- Subject-wise marks (theory + internal/practical)
- Total marks and grades (Class 10: A1–E; Class 12: percentage)
- Pass/Fail status
- Division (First, Second, Third for Class 12; Class 10 uses CGPA)
To pass, you need:
- 33% minimum in each subject (theory + practical/internal assessments combined).
- 33% overall aggregate (Class 10: best 5 of 6 subjects; Class 12: all subjects).
- A grade above “E” in internal assessments (unless exempted).
Grace marks may be awarded if you’re 1–2 marks short. Scoring below 33% in one or two subjects means a “Compartment” (COMP) status, and you can take supplementary exams in July 2025. Failing more than two subjects requires repeating the year. Class 10 uses a 9-point scale (A1=91–100, 10 GPA; E=0–20, fail), while Class 12 reports percentages for college admissions.
What After the Results?
- Class 10 Students:
- Passed? Pick your Class 11 stream—Science, Commerce, or Arts. Chat with parents or counselors for advice.
- Compartment? Register for supplementary exams (tentative: July 15–22, 2025) via cbse.gov.in. Results are expected in August.
- Want a recheck? Apply for verification (₹500/subject) or re-evaluation (₹100/question) in May/June 2025. Request answer sheet photocopies for ₹700/sheet.
- Class 12 Students:
- Passed? Apply for colleges, entrance exams (e.g., NEET on May 4), or vocational courses.
- Compartment? Take supplementary exams to clear your academic year.
- Need rechecking? Follow the same verification/re-evaluation process within 1–2 weeks of results.
Verify your marksheet for errors (e.g., name, date of birth) and report to your school ASAP. Digital marksheets are provisional; collect originals from school for admissions.

The CBSE Class 10 and 12 Results 2025 are not out yet, despite some claims. Sources like indianexpress.com and timesofindia.indiatimes.com point to an early May release, possibly May 2, but nothing’s official. An X post by @Xpress_edex (April 30, 2025) also mentions May 2, but CBSE hasn’t confirmed. Keep your admit card ready, monitor results.cbse.nic.in, and stay calm. Pass or compartment, you’ve got options to keep moving forward. Best of luck—you’re almost there
