The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is gearing up to announce the eagerly awaited Class 10 and 12 board examination results for over 42 lakh students who participated in the exams held from February 15 to April 4, 2025. Following historical trends, both results are anticipated to be declared simultaneously around mid-May 2025. Students can access their scorecards via multiple official platforms, including cbse.gov.in, DigiLocker, and the UMANG app.
In the previous year, the Class 12 pass percentage stood at 87.98%, while Class 10 recorded a pass rate of 93.60%. To successfully pass, students must secure a minimum of 33% marks in each subject. Grace marks may be provided for those who narrowly miss the passing threshold. Although the board has yet to officially announce the result date, past results have consistently been released in the second week of May. For instance, the results for 2024 were declared on May 13, and those for 2023 were announced on May 12. The only notable delay occurred in 2022 when results were postponed until July 22 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In addition to the CBSE results, the Himachal Pradesh Board of School Education (HPBOSE) is also preparing to announce the Class 12 board exam results for the 2024–25 academic year. Although the board has not confirmed an official date, historical patterns suggest that the HPBOSE 12th Result 2025 could be declared by the end of April or early May. Over 85,000 students who appeared for exams held between March 4 and March 29, 2025, are anxiously awaiting their results.
Once announced, the results will be accessible online at the official website, hpbose.org. The declaration will be a significant milestone for students, shaping their college admissions and competitive exam plans. The HPBOSE has maintained a consistent exam schedule, concluding the Class 12 examination session with the Dance (Kathak/Bharat Natyam) paper on March 29.
Students can check their HPBOSE results by following these steps: First, visit the official HPBOSE website at hpbose.org. Then, click on the link that says “HPBOSE 12th Result 2025.” After entering your roll number and other required login credentials, click on “Submit” to view your result. Students should check their marks and download the provisional scorecard for future reference.
A look back at HPBOSE results from the previous two years offers insight into performance trends. In 2024, the Class 12 result was declared on April 29, with an overall pass percentage of 73.76%. Out of 85,777 students who appeared, 63,092 passed. Notably, 30 out of the 41 students on the merit list were girls. In 2023, results were declared on May 20, with a higher overall pass rate of 79.74%. A total of 1,05,369 students took the exam, and 83,418 passed. This trend analysis indicates that the board is likely to continue announcing results in late April to early May, maintaining a consistent pass rate between 70% and 80%.
After the results are declared, the board will release guidelines for result verification, revaluation, and compartment exams. Students aiming for higher education in fields such as medical, engineering, or commerce should start tracking college admission notices and entrance exam schedules closely.
As both CBSE and HPBOSE prepare to unveil their results, students, parents, and educational institutions are urged to stay updated through the official websites. The anticipation is palpable as these results will not only reflect students’ hard work but also pave the way for their future academic endeavors.
