CBSE 12th Result 2026 Documents

The Central Board of Secondary Education, CBSE, is all set to release the Class 12 Result soon. Along with the result, CBSE will also issue important and mandatory documents that all students and parents must know about. These documents are not only regarded as important certificates of basic educational qualification but are also mandatory for higher education, both in India and abroad.

Important Documents

After the declaration of the result, the board issues the mark sheet of the students. A mark sheet essentially lists out the marks scored by the students and contains both practical as well as theory marks obtained by the student in a particular subject. The mark sheet also has the grade of the students but does not carry a grade point average of CGPA.

How to Access Documents

The board issues a physical as well as a digital mark sheet to all students who pass the Class 12 board examination. The printed physical mark sheet is sent to the schools within a few days after the declaration of the result. However, the digital form of the mark sheet is available at the time of release of results. Students can download this digital mark sheet from their DigiLocker account. Username and password for the same will be issued by the board and shared with registered schools. Students can access the same using the password provided.

Passing Certificate

Along with the mark sheet, the board releases a passing certificate. For Class 12, the certificate name is All Indian Secondary School Certificate Examination or AISSCE. This is the official document that is mandatory for admission to any higher education institute as well as for other career roles and government recruitment. Marks of the student are not mentioned in the certificate and it only specifies that the student ‘passed’ the examination.
