Important Points to Note Regarding CBSE LOC Registration

• If any student’s photo was not uploaded in the CBSE Class 9, 11 registration, then it can be uploaded before submitting the final CBSE LOC.
• Private students can submit their data separately through the CBSE private candidate registration form.

CBSE LOC Correction 2025-26

• There is no option for correcting in uploaded data. So, the students or respective schools will have to ensure they enter data correctly before submitting the final LOC.
• Once the LOC has been submitted, students are not allowed to request for change of subject in CBSE, and schools can not provide admission to Class 10 and 12 (except transfer cases).

Action Required for the Submission of LOC by School

From the academic year 2025-26, the board will conduct the CBSE 10th exam twice a year. For the CBSE 2nd phase examination, the board will open the window for LOC for 5 days after the declaration of the first phase result. Below, we have explained all the actions that the schools must take in this regard.

Part 1: For the first time in LOC 2025-26

• Schools must ensure that the LOC of all the candidates appearing for the board examination is submitted accordingly on time.
• The board has decided to link the APAAR ID of candidates for both 10th and 12th LOC data.
  APAAR in Indian schools: On January 24, 2025, the board had already communicated the need for the implementation of APAAR ID for students of CBSE-affiliated schools in India. Schools will be able to fill out the LOC for all the students who have an APAAR ID.
  APAAR in CBSE schools situated abroad: CBSE schools abroad are exempted from APAAR because of administrative reasons and laws of the respective countries.

Part 2: Preparatory action to be taken by the school

Schools must be ready with students' information, such as the candidate's name, father's name, guardian's name, date of birth, APAAR ID, correct subject code and combination, and category applying in (i.e., FS/improvement/compartment)

Part 3: Eligibility criteria of candidates for the LOC

Schools must ensure that candidates are eligible for the LOC.

• Candidates sponsored are their own regular and bonafide students only.
• No bonafide student's name is left unsponsored.
• Students are not from any unauthorised/unaffiliated school.
• Students are regularly attending classes in the school and fulfilling the minimum attendance norms as per the Examination Bye-laws of the Board.
• Students are not registered with any other School Education Board in addition to CBSE.
• The students are eligible to appear in the Board's Examinations for classes X and XII as per the provisions of the Examination Bye-laws.
• In the case of students of Class-XII, it is essential to confirm that they have passed their Class-X examination from a recognised School Education Board only on or before the academic year 2024.

Part 4: Action to be taken while filling LOC

• Schools have to register themselves and enter the information on the OASIS portal regarding student details, teacher information, statutory compliance certificates, etc.

• Once the schools register, they need to submit the student data on the HPE portal. The registration number will be generated. Schools need to keep that safe for the LOC submission time.

• They can now submit the CBSE list of candidates.
