The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has activated the portal for Class 12 students to apply for verification of marks and re-evaluation of their board examination results. The portal was opened on 2 June 2026, following a delay attributed to technical improvements and additional testing. Only students who have already received scanned copies of their evaluated answer sheets are eligible to apply for re-evaluation or verification.According to Hindustan Times, the CBSE had initially announced that the re-evaluation portal would open on 1 June 2026. However, students reported being unable to access the website on the scheduled date. The board subsequently clarified that the delay was due to extensive testing and system upgrades to ensure platform stability.CBSE Board Exam 2025: Registration for Classes 9 and 11 To Start Soon; DetailsAs reported by Financial Express, the re-evaluation process is available exclusively to students who have already applied for and received scanned copies of their answer books.

Live Law highlighted that the National Students' Union of India (NSUI) has filed a plea before the Delhi High Court, citing irregularities such as blurred scans, missing pages, and incomplete uploads. The plea seeks an independent inquiry and requests that the verification portal remain open for a month, with provisions for manual rechecking in disputed cases.CBSE is expected to keep the verification and re-evaluation window open for at least two days after the final scanned copies of evaluated answer books are made available to students.
