The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has reopened the List of Candidates (LOC) portal for Class 10 and 12 Board Exams 2026. Schools can now submit candidate data with a late fee. This final window ensures all schools complete submissions on time.
CBSE Extends LOC Submission Deadline with Late Fee
CBSE initially set the LOC submission deadline for 30 September 2025. Due to delays by some schools, the portal was reopened from 3 October 2025 with a late fee. Schools must comply as no further extensions will be provided.
The Board issued repeated circulars and reminders since August 2025 to ensure accurate and timely submission. Schools were notified of key dates and instructions in eight communications between 27 August and 30 September 2025.

Schools can submit the LOC using different payment modes. CBSE has provided the following schedule:
