CBSE 12th Result 2026: Direct Link to Check Class 12 Scores on DigiLocker and UMANG

The wait for lakhs of students is almost over. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to declare the CBSE Class 12 Result 2026 today, May 11, 2026, or within the next 24 hours. A "Class 12 Result Coming Soon" banner has already been activated on the DigiLocker portal, signaling that the digital marksheets are being uploaded to the servers.

This year, CBSE has introduced the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, a digital evaluation method designed to minimize manual errors and accelerate the result-hosting process. Over 16 lakh students across the Science, Commerce, and Humanities streams are eagerly anticipating their performance reports.
