CBSE Result 2025: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to announce the CBSE Board Results 2025 for Classes 10 and 12 anytime soon. Over 42 lakh students who appeared in the board exams held from February 15 to April 4, 2025, are eagerly waiting for their CBSE Class 10 and Class 12 results. According to past trends, CBSE usually declares results by mid-May, increasing expectations of a declaration in the coming days.
Students can check their results on the official CBSE websites — cbse.gov.in, cbseresults.nic.in, and results.cbse.nic.in. Additionally, the CBSE Result 2025 will also be accessible on Digi Locker, a government-authorized platform offering digital mark sheets.
CBSE Result 2025: New Grading System Introduced
For the 2024–25 academic session, CBSE has implemented a new Relative Grading System. This move is aimed at reducing academic pressure and unhealthy competition among students. Unlike the previous system which assigned grades based on predefined mark ranges (e.g., 91–100 for A1), the relative grading approach evaluates students based on their performance compared to peers.
Under this system, grades will vary based on the distribution of marks in each subject, offering a fairer representation of students’ relative performance. This means a student’s grade depends on how others have performed in the same subject, not just their raw score.
Over 42 Lakh Students Participated in CBSE Board Exams 2025
This year saw a record number of over 42 lakh students appearing for the CBSE Class 10 and 12 board exams, held across 7842 exam centers in India and abroad. The Class 10 exams concluded on March 18, while the Class 12 exams ended on April 4, 2025.
