CBSE Board Exam Results 2025: List of ‘unofficial’ websites 

The use of third-party websites unaffiliated with the CBSE or government services has been forbidden for students. Some private education portals could ask for unnecessary login credentials or show outdated information, while others might re-route students to the official websites. No private website has been given permission by CBSE to directly host the results. 

 

Pop-up advertisements, broken links, or deceptive images that mimic those of official CBSE pages are examples of unofficial websites. Students are encouraged to double-check the URL to make sure it ends in ".gov.in" or is owned by DigiLocker/UMANG, both of which are government-run.  ALSO READ | CBSE Board Class 12 results 2025 declared: Girls outperform boys by 5.94%

Students must pick up their marksheets from their individual schools as soon as the results are announced.
