CBSE revaluation 2026: Portal Glitches Halt Applications Ahead of Deadline
The CBSE revaluation 2026 portal has been inaccessible for three days , leaving lakhs of Class 12 students unable to submit applications before the May 23, 2026 deadline. Many users see a persistent “Site Under Maintenance” message and cannot complete login or application steps.
CBSE revaluation 2026: Login and access problems
Students across India report repeated login failures and interrupted sessions. Those who manage to log in say payment pages fail or time out, preventing final submission.
High volume of applications after reported anomalies in the On Screen Marking system is adding pressure on the portal. There is no public timeline from the official authority on when the site will be fully restored.
CBSE revaluation 2026: Payment errors and confirmation issues
Multiple students say amounts were deducted yet the portal showed payments as invalid or returned a “Payment Unsuccessful & Application is Closed” message. Others report not receiving the required QR code after making payments, which means applications remain unconfirmed.
Reports also describe cases where the transaction showed as completed on the bank side but the CBSE portal offered no proof of receipt. Students have been advised to retain bank payment receipts and screenshots while they pursue resolution.
Fee revision and photocopy complaints
CBSE revised the photocopy fee without prior notice; the new fee listed on the portal is 69.67 , down from INR 100 earlier. Students who received photocopies of answer sheets have complained that many copies are blurry and unclear.
The fee change and later complaints about the clarity of photocopies have increased demand for revaluation and photocopy requests, intensifying server load on the portal.
Immediate student impact and next steps
Eligible applicants must successfully log in and complete payment to submit revaluation or photocopy requests. With the fixed deadline of May 23, 2026 , failures to submit now put many students at risk of missing the window.
Social media has been flooded with student and parent complaints. There is no official CBSE statement yet on refunds, a technical cause, or whether the deadline will be extended.
Students should keep payment proofs and screenshots if a transaction goes through. Contacting CBSE support through official channels is advised, though helpline details have not been issued in these reports.
Authorities must resolve login, payment and confirmation issues quickly to avoid a larger backlog before the deadline. The portal problems and fee revision together have made a time-sensitive process far more uncertain for thousands of Class 12 candidates.
