Subject: Submission of Registration Data of Candidates for Class IX/XI,2025-26.
Madam/Sir,
Registration of students in Class IX & XI is significant process that helps CBSE in advance planning for holding the Class X & XII examinations of these students in the forthcoming year. Another important aspect of registration is to communicate the students’ personal particulars to the parents so that in case, there is any mistake in the personal details of the student concerned the same may be corrected immediately. This helps in eliminating future problems. The registration process shall start as per the schedule given in Annexure-A .The registration of candidates will be done through the Pariksha Sangam link given on the CBSE website https://cbse .gov.in.
CBSE has introduced a few new changes this year which include:
(A) As per the implementation of the National Education Policy NEP-2020, the Central Board of Secondary Education has notified about the conduct of two board examinations for Class X students though notification No. CBSE/CE/2-Board Examinations-X/2025, dated 25.06.2025. This significant change in the examination pattern demands comprehensive planning, robust coordination, and seamless execution at all levels of the stakeholders.
(B) CBSE has decided to link the APAAR id of candidates for both Class IX and XI registration data of the schools situated in India.
In this regard, instructions issued by the CBSE are annexed at Annexure-J be seen for compliance please.
(C) NEW STEP TO ENSURE CORRECT DATA & SUBJECTS FOR EXAMINATIONS 2026- 2027
GENERATION OF DATA VERIFICATION SLIP
After the last date, a data verification slip will be generated by the schools for each candidate. In case, if the data i.e. candidate/mother/father/guardian name, date of birth or subject offered is found wrong by the school/candidate, CBSE will allow the same to be corrected from 14.11.2025 (Friday) to 28.11.2025.(Friday) Once this process and period is over, NO CORRECTION WILL BE ALLOWED BY THE BOARD.
(D) Registration slips will be made available to schools for downloading after completion of the process.
These registration slips will be provided to students by the school for safekeeping for future LOC filling.

Simultaneously, the names of teachers, whose names are not figured in the existing data shall be included.

29. In the event of any difficulty, the concerned Regional Office may be contacted.
EFFORTS FOR CORRECT SUBMISSION OF DATA
30. It has been observed that students after passing Class X and Class XII are making requests to the CBSE to make the corrections/changes in their personal data viz- their name, date of birth, name of the mother and father and to issue revised educational documents. Their requests are found to be based on several excuses. These requests are quite difficult to accept by the schools as well as by the CBSE as these could lead to the creation of a new identity which may lead to legal complications.
School will not change any record of any student available with the school, once data has been submitted to CBSE on the registration portal. Similarly, the data of students for class-XI shall be strictly as per their Class-X certificate and shall not be changed, once their data has been submitted to CBSE on the registration portal, without the approval of CBSE.
Schools are required to brief/guide the students about the importance of correct data and precautions to be taken by them while getting themselves registered in CBSE in Class-IX. CBSE is also making efforts and several checks are incorporated in the system so that the data of all the students is 100% correct and no request is received by the CBSE for correction of data. The measures to be taken are:
(a) Bring to the notice of the students that the correct data is to be provided for registration.
(b) Registration details will be provided to the students and the parents in the form of a registration card by the school to confirm the correctness of the details.
(c) The list of Candidates (LOC) will be based on the data provided in the registration record.
(d) Parents will sign the registration and LOC as a confirmation of the correctness of the data.
(e) Undertaking about correctness of data on Admit Card by candidate and parent.
(f) Parents will sign an undertaking at the back of the Class X- and XII-Marks Statement Cum Certificate that they have checked the data and found correct.
Accordingly, schools are requested to guide the students and their parents in the following manner:
(a) Students must give the expanded name of self and Father/Mother/Guardian. It is advisable not to give abbreviations.
(b) May check that their data is similar in all the documents like Date of Birth Certificate, School records, Aadhaar and Passport etc.
(c) Students should describe their name in full i.e., no abbreviated form shall be given.
(d) Their Date of Birth is as per the Date of Birth certificate and as per school record.
(e) They will anticipate the requirement of the surname as when visiting abroad, it may be required by the visiting country to have both first name and Surname.
(f) No salutations shall be added to the name(s)
(g) This year, APAAR ID of each student who will be registered for Class IX / XI is being made mandatory.
WHILE UPLOADING DATA, SCHOOLS WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THE FOLLOWING:-
31. The spelling of the name of the student/mother/father/Guardian is correct and is as per the Admission & Withdrawal Register maintained by the school. It may be ensured that the full name of the candidate/mother/father/guardian be filled in to avoid corrections in the future and avoid hardship to the candidate. Abbreviations should not be used.
32. The date of Birth is correct and is as per the Admission & Withdrawal Register maintained by the school.
33. Subject combinations are correct and as per the Scheme of Studies. Subject codes should be chosen carefully & especially in the following subjects, codes be chosen correctly:
(a) In Class – IX :
English (Communicative) (101), English (Lang. & Litt.) (184)
Hindi – A (002), Hindi – B(085),
Sanskrit (communicative) (119), Sanskrit (122)
Urdu-A (003), Urdu-B (303),
Telugu (007) , Telugu (Telangana) (089)
Mathematics Standard(041), Mathematics Basic(241).
(b) In Class – XI :

English Core(301), English Elective (001),
Sanskrit Core(322), Sanskrit Elective(022),
Urdu Core(303), Urdu Elective(003).
Mathematics(041), Applied Mathematics(241).
COMMON MISTAKES COMMITTED BY THE SCHOOLS
(i) Submitting incorrect data and subjects of the students
(ii) Not registering students at all
(iii) All the students are not registered and at a later stage request is made to the CBSE
(iv) Providing admission to a Class VIII failed student in Class IX and Class X failed student in Class XI
(v) Providing admission to a student in Class XI who has passed Class X from an unrecognized/fake Board
(vi) Interchanging day and month in the date of birth
(vii) Giving various excuses that because of the demise of the uncle of the clerk assigned the duty of registration left the station without any information to the principal, the teacher responsible for registration was not well or met with an accident and hence, missed registration.
(viii) No excuse will be accepted by the CBSE. All principals are directed to seek the report from the concerned teacher/ official each day from the 5 days before the last date about the status of the registration and the fee payment. It is the first responsibility of the principal to ensure that the registration of all eligible students with correct data is submitted within schedule.
(ix) Data of the two same-name students is submitted wrongly.
SUBMISSION OF DATA IN OASIS
Schools are expected to keep their data on the OASIS Portal always updated. However, once again the school may complete/update the information on the OASIS portal well before opening of registration portal. It is mandatory to complete/update OASIS data before opening the registration portal. It should be borne in mind that the number of sections shall not be more than the number of sections allowed to the school by the Affiliation Unit.
It may be noted that the restriction on the number of sections and total number of candidates shall be based on the number of sections entered by the school in the OASIS before the date of opening of the registration portal. The updation done after the opening of the registration portal will not be reflected in the school account. Schools are therefore cautioned to update their data on the OASIS portal, especially the number of sections, before the opening date of the registration portal.
SYLLABUS AND SCHEME OF STUDIES
The board has prescribed a scheme of studies which is available in the Curriculum on the link https://cbseacademi c.nic.in/curriculum 2026 .html for Secondary and Senior Secondary classes. Schools are required to offer the subjects in accordance with the Scheme of Studies only.
It is expected that the schools will read the guidelines carefully, collect the correct data of the students and submit the same also correctly. Their efforts in uploading correct data will help in providing correct subject Question Papers to the candidates & also in providing documents with correct particulars which will also reduce the cases of corrections in the personal data of the candidates after declaration of results.
