NEW DELHI: CBSE on Sunday said it has declared outcomes in more than 99.7% of applications received for verification and re-evaluation of Class XII 2026 results, even as it rejected a student’s social media claim on marks revision as “factually incorrect” and a “blatant lie”.CBSE officials rebutted the claim of Vedant Shrivastav, who posted a video on social media claiming only two marks had increased and that no mark increased in the “exchanged answer sheets,’ on Sunday morning.CBSE claimed that Shrivastav’s theory marks increased from 46 to 47 in Mathematics, 35 to 44 in Physics and 61 to 62 in Computer Science. The total increase, the Board said, was 11 marks, including a nine-mark rise in Physics alone.However, Vedant countered CBSE’s claim and said: “9 marks which were increased that were the true marks and were not increased by the process of re-evaluation. CBSE is wrong on this.”CBSE officials said the results of applications for “verification of issues observed and re-evaluation” have been released in batches since June 21. The remaining cases, it said, are in the final stages of processing and are expected to be released in a couple of days. The Board also sought to contrast this year’s timeline with 2025, saying the declaration process last year began on June 27 and was completed on July 11.The clarification comes against the backdrop of the controversy over CBSE’s on-screen marking (OSM) system, rolled out for Class XII this year. Several students and parents had complained of blurred or cropped scanned answer-book pages, missing supplementary sheets, portal glitches and delays in post-result services. CBSE has maintained that the marking scheme was unchanged and that rescans and manual checks were undertaken wherever required.
