Board Exam Date Sheet 2026 for Class 10, 12 Released by Boards

Several state and national education boards have released the Board Exam Date Sheet 2026 for Class 10 and Class 12, providing students with a clearer roadmap for the upcoming academic cycle. While CBSE and Maharashtra have already finalised their examination windows, other boards including Haryana and Himachal Pradesh are expected to publish their schedules soon. The consolidated timetable helps schools align pre-board tests, revision plans, and administrative preparations for the annual public examinations. Based on the annual academic frameworks, most boards have opted for a February–March examination period, maintaining consistency with the previous year. Students have been advised to check the official websites of their respective boards to access the latest announcements and prepare accordingly.

 

Confirmed and Expected Class 10 and 12 Exam Windows for 2026

Before presenting the state-wise schedules, it is helpful to understand the broader pattern adopted across boards. Most national and state boards begin Class 10 examinations during the second or third week of February, followed by Class 12 examinations that extend into March or early April. This standard structure ensures adequate evaluation time and timely results ahead of college admissions. The table below summarises the confirmed examination windows released so far, along with schedules expected to be announced shortly.
