CBSE 2027 LOC Portal Closing Today: Schools Must Verify Student Details Before Deadline

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is closing the regular CBSE 2027 LOC portal submission window for Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations today, October 21, 2026. Schools affiliated with CBSE must submit the List of Candidates (LOC), verify students' examination details and pay the applicable fees within the prescribed deadline.

Schools that miss the regular deadline can submit the LOC during the late-fee window from October 22 to October 30, 2026, subject to the prescribed late fee. The official updates and LOC circulars are available on the CBSE website.

CBSE 2027 LOC Portal Last Date and Important Dates

The CBSE List of Candidates submission process is an essential step in registering eligible students for the CBSE 2027 board examinations. Schools must complete the process for their eligible Class 10 and Class 12 students and ensure that the examination fees are paid.

The important dates for the CBSE LOC 2026–27 process are listed below.

Schools should check the latest official circular before submitting or correcting any candidate information. The scheduled correction window should not be treated as permission to make unrestricted changes to every field.

CBSE LOC Fees for Class 10 and Class 12 Board Exams 2027

Schools must pay the prescribed examination fee while submitting the LOC. The reported fee structure for Indian students is outlined below; schools should verify the applicable amount and any exemptions in the official CBSE circular.

The late fee applies during the notified late-submission period, October 22 to October 30, 2026. Schools should calculate the applicable total based on each candidate's subjects and eligibility and complete the payment within the official window.

How Schools Can Submit the CBSE LOC Form 2026–27

Schools that have not yet completed the process should use the official CBSE examination portal and follow the prescribed instructions. The submission should be completed only after the candidate details and subject combinations have been verified.

1. Visit the official CBSE website.
2. Open the relevant examination or LOC submission link.
3. Log in using the school's authorised credentials.
4. Enter or review the required details for eligible Class 10 and Class 12 students.
5. Verify names, dates of birth, parent or guardian details, subjects, photographs and other required information.
6. Calculate and pay the applicable examination fee.
7. Submit the LOC and save the confirmation or payment records.

Students should coordinate with their school administration because the LOC is submitted by schools, not through an individual student application process.

What Should Students Do Before the CBSE LOC Deadline?

Students should contact their school examination department or class teacher to confirm that their names are included in the LOC for the 2027 board examinations. They should check their personal details, subject combination and other information recorded by the school.

If a discrepancy is found, students should inform the school immediately so it can be reviewed before submission. They should also ask the school to confirm whether the LOC has been submitted successfully. The correction window scheduled for November 2–4, 2026, may allow specified corrections under CBSE's rules. However, students should not delay reporting errors on the assumption that every detail can be changed later.
