13 days left for CG Board revaluation, retotalling and answer copies
CGBSE has set May 14 as the cut-off for every Class 10 and 12 student who wants their answer sheet rechecked. Online via cgbse.nic.in or offline at district, tahsil and block centres.
It is the morning of May 1 in Mahasamund, Raipur and Bilaspur — three days after the CGBSE result landed and 13 days before the revaluation window slams shut. Across the state, around 5.66 lakh students who sat the Class 10 and 12 boards are pulling out their marksheets one more time. For every borderline mark — the 32 in Maths that should have been a 33, the 84 in Hindi the teacher swore was a 90 — May 14, 2026 is the last day to ask for a recheck.
What CGBSE actually said
The Chhattisgarh Board of Secondary Education has opened three separate windows on the same deadline — recalculation (पुनर्गणना), revaluation (पुनर्मूल्यांकन), and a photocopy of the answer copy (उत्तरपुस्तिका की छायाप्रति). Applications go through cgbse.nic.in for online filers, and through district, tahsil and block-level CGBSE centres for offline. Forms are downloadable from the official portal. The board has been blunt about the cliff edge — 'निर्धारित अंतिम तिथि के बाद कोई आवेदन नहीं स्वीकार किए जाएंगे'. No application is accepted after May 14. Schools tracking exam results for borderline students need their lists ready before the May 12 weekend, since the school-side counter-signature on each form takes a day to clear.
What this changes for your school
If you run a Chhattisgarh school with Class 10 or 12 students, the next 12 working days decide three things — your borderline list, your re-evaluation counsel for parents, and your scholarship-application reissue plan. The school office is the bottleneck: every form needs the principal's stamp. Pull every child below 35% in any one subject, every child within two marks of a grade jump, and every Class 12 child applying for a college that watches single-digit percentage moves. Pair the list with your school's marksheet record so the corrected sheet is ready to print the moment CGBSE updates a mark.
What to watch next
CGBSE will release supplementary exam dates within the fortnight after the deadline closes — the first paper typically falls in the first week of July. Schools that batch-submit revaluation forms before May 12 avoid the queue at the district office on the deadline day itself.

Frequently asked
3 questionsWhat is the difference between recalculation and revaluation?
Recalculation (पुनर्गणना) is a fresh totalling of the marks already on the answer sheet — answers stay marked the way the original evaluator marked them, only the addition is checked. Revaluation (पुनर्मूल्यांकन) puts the answers themselves in front of a second evaluator. Fees, timeline and the chance of a mark change all differ; most schools start with recalculation for marks within two of a grade boundary and reserve revaluation for the harder cases.
How does a school file these applications for many students at once?
CGBSE allows the school office to batch-submit forms in person at the district or tahsil-level board centre. Most schools attach a covering letter listing every student name and roll number, with the principal's signature on each individual form. Online filing happens per student through the cgbse.nic.in portal — the school cannot bulk-file digitally yet. Plan one full office day for the in-person batch run.
When will the revaluation result be declared?
CGBSE has not officially announced a result-of-revaluation date for 2026, but the typical pattern is six to eight weeks from the application deadline. Schools should brief parents that revaluation results land before the supplementary exam, so a child who clears revaluation does not have to sit the supplementary.
