The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will close the registration process for the 2025 Board Exams for classes 10 and 12 today, October 4, 2024. Schools affiliated with CBSE must submit the List of Candidates (LOC) and the required fees through the Pariksha Sangam portal at parikshasangam.cbse.gov.in.
The registration process without a late fee ends today. However, schools that miss the deadline can still submit the LOC with a late fee of ₹2,000 per student. This late registration period will begin on October 5 and continue until October 15, 2024.
Registration Fees Structure
For students registering from India, the fee for five subjects is ₹1,500. Nepalese students must pay ₹5,000, while international students are charged ₹10,000. For any additional subjects, Indian students are required to pay ₹300 per subject, Nepalese students ₹1,000, and international students ₹2,000.
Additionally, for Class 12 students, there is a practical fee of ₹150 per subject for schools in India and Nepal and ₹350 per subject for schools located abroad. The late fee of ₹2,000 per candidate will apply to all, regardless of location.
LOC Submission Guidelines for Schools
CBSE has emphasised the importance of timely and accurate submission of the List of Candidates (LOC) by schools. The board has stressed that no corrections can be made once the data is submitted, so schools must ensure all details, including student information and subject choices, are correctly entered.
The official notice further highlights that only students whose names are submitted through the online LOC process will be eligible to appear for the 2025 board exams.
School heads are encouraged to follow the guidelines issued by CBSE and ensure the accuracy of their submissions to facilitate the smooth conduct of the exams.
