Bihar Board Result 2026: BSEB Chairman Announces Expected Timeline for Class 10 and 12 Outcomes
The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) is preparing to release the much-anticipated results for both the Class 10 (Matric) and Class 12 (Intermediate) annual examinations. According to the latest update from BSEB Chairman Anand Kishore, students can expect the outcomes to be announced before the end of March 2026. This announcement comes as a relief to over 28 lakh students who appeared for the examinations earlier this year.
Result Declaration Schedule and Expectations
The board has clarified that both the Intermediate and Matric results will be published by the final week of March. Based on the previous year’s timeline, when results were declared around the same period, students are hopeful that this year’s announcements will follow a similar pattern. The board is currently completing the final verification processes, including the scrutiny of answer sheets and the evaluation of top performers.
Intermediate Results Likely First
According to the BSEB chairman, the board will prioritize the release of Class 12 results before moving on to the Class 10 outcomes. Industry observers and educational analysts suggest that the Intermediate results could be announced between March 23 and March 25, based on historical trends. However, the board has not yet confirmed an official date for the announcement.
The verification process for potential toppers in the Intermediate examinations has already been completed. This process included thorough checks of signatures, handwriting samples, answer copies, and candidate eligibility criteria. With these preliminary steps finished, the board is now focused on completing the remaining procedural formalities.
Matric Results to Follow Shortly
Following the release of the Intermediate results, the board will shift its attention to publishing the Class 10 outcomes. The chairman has indicated that both sets of results will be made public by the end of March. It is worth noting that in the previous academic session, the Matric results were released on March 29, and a similar timeline is anticipated this year.

This year’s examinations witnessed massive participation, with a combined total of more than 28.30 lakh students registered for both classes. The Class 10 examinations alone accounted for 15,12,687 registered candidates, while the Class 12 examinations saw participation from 13,17,846 students.
