The November 5 deadline was pushed to November 20, and it has now been extended for the third time due to technical issues faced by schools.

Sanjay Shendge, principal, Seth Dagaduram Katariya English Medium High School said, “The website is very slow and hangs. We were all worried as November 20 was the last day for submitting the forms. Deadline extension is a welcome step as thousands of students appear for SSC exams and no one wants to miss it due to technical issues.”

“Some schools are unable to fill exam forms online due to technical glitches. So, we decided to extend the date of submission for regular and repeater students. Students can fill forms online with regular fees. Those who are unable to submit forms within deadline can fill application forms online with late fees till December 10,” said Ashok Bhosale, secretary, Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Education.
