Following the conclusion of the Class 12 board examinations, attention has now turned to the Class 10 results conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Although the CBSE has not provided a confirmed date for the announcement of Class 10 results, the outcome is anticipated in the coming weeks, based on release patterns observed in previous years.

To successfully pass the Class 10 examination, students are required to secure a minimum of 33 per cent in each subject. In certain cases where a candidate falls slightly short of this threshold, the board may choose to grant grace marks. Such decisions are made at the discretion of the board, taking into account overall performance and internal criteria.

A look at the board’s performance trends in recent years shows relatively stable results, with pass percentages generally remaining above 90 per cent for Class 10. In 2024, 93.60 per cent of students passed the Class 10 examination, while the Class 12 pass percentage stood at 87.98 per cent.
