Board results – School Chronicle

Class X and XII results in one place: toppers announced by boards and states, each board’s pass percentages, and our reporting on results.

National toppers

All-India toppers, where a national board announces them.

No official national toppers for 2026. CBSE did not publish a merit list for Class X or XII, and CISCE does not publish ICSE or ISC toppers. Lists of "toppers" circulating online are compiled from student submissions and are not verified, so we do not reproduce them.

State toppers

Toppers announced by state boards, with their schools.
