They said the results of Class 10 exams, which were written by 590,363 students from February 23 to March 8, will be declared in the second week of May.

The Class 12 science stream results will be announced in the third week of next month and those for humanities and commerce in the last week. There were 365,826 students who took the Class 12 exams from March 5 to March 29.

Last year, the pass percentage for Class 10 was 85.28 and in Class 12 74.24% students cleared the exams.

The council banned mobile phones in all exam centres after the question papers of Class 10 were reportedly circulated on WhatsApp during the exams. The prohibition was applicable to candidates, invigilators and other staff at the exam venues.

The evaluation of answer papers of Class 12 exam was hit hard because of an agitation by a prominent teachers’ body that demanded more remuneration.
