Adding to the concerns, the opening of the CBSE revaluation portal coincides with the commencement of JoSAA Counselling 2026, creating scheduling challenges for engineering aspirants who must manage both processes simultaneously.
CBSE Opens Revaluation and Verification Portal
CBSE has informed students that applications for answer sheet verification and re-evaluation can now be submitted online through its official website.
Students seeking:
- Verification of marks
- Photocopy of evaluated answer sheets
- Re-evaluation of specific answers
can now access the online application facility and complete the required formalities within the stipulated timeline.
Official Portal
CBSE Verification and Revaluation Portal
The Board has also issued a detailed notification outlining the revised procedure and introducing Aadhaar-based verification as an additional security measure.
CBSE Introduces Aadhaar Verification for Enhanced Security
One of the major changes this year is the inclusion of Aadhaar authentication during the application process.
According to the official CBSE notification:
"Aadhaar Verification has been included for security reasons. For children who do not have Aadhaar, the parent's, relative's or guardian's Aadhaar details may be used."
The Board further clarified that when a parent, relative, or guardian's Aadhaar number is used, the Aadhaar-linked name, date of birth, and gender entered during verification must correspond to the individual whose Aadhaar details are being utilized.
CBSE has stated that the move is intended to strengthen identity verification and improve the security of the application process.
Students Report Login Issues and Portal Accessibility Problems
Despite the portal becoming operational, several students have taken to social media platforms and discussion forums to express concerns regarding technical glitches.
Some of the commonly reported issues include:
- Difficulty accessing the portal on mobile devices
- Login failures after entering credentials
- Slow page loading and session interruptions
- Difficulty completing Aadhaar verification
- Repeated redirections during the application process
Students claim that these issues have made it difficult to complete applications smoothly, particularly during peak traffic hours.
Many candidates have urged the Board to address these technical concerns promptly to prevent eligible applicants from missing important deadlines.
JoSAA Counselling and CBSE Revaluation Timelines Overlap
A major concern raised by students is the timing of the CBSE revaluation process.
The portal has opened on the same day that JoSAA 2026 Counselling Registration and Choice Fillingcommenced. Thousands of students who qualified engineering entrance examinations are now required to complete both crucial processes simultaneously.
Candidates report that the CBSE portal's session timeout period of approximately two hours is creating additional inconvenience, particularly for those switching between counselling registration, document verification, choice filling, and CBSE revaluation applications.
Students and parents have requested CBSE to consider extending the application deadline so that applicants are not forced to choose between equally important academic processes.
Students Seek Greater Clarity on the Revised Procedure
Apart from technical difficulties, several students have expressed confusion regarding:
- Aadhaar authentication requirements
- Eligibility for verification and re-evaluation stages
- Sequence of application steps
- Payment process
- Use of parent or guardian Aadhaar details
Many candidates have requested CBSE to publish additional FAQs and step-by-step guidance to simplify the process and reduce uncertainty.
Education experts note that while enhanced security measures are welcome, clear communication is essential to ensure students understand the revised procedure without facing unnecessary stress.
Official Circular Released by CBSE
The Board has also published an official circular explaining the Aadhaar verification process and the procedure for applying for verification of marks and re-evaluation.
Official Circular
CBSE Aadhaar Verification Circular (June 2, 2026)
Students are advised to carefully read the notification before submitting applications.
What Students Should Do Now
Candidates planning to apply for verification or re-evaluation should:
✔ Keep Aadhaar details ready before beginning the application.
✔ Ensure personal information matches official records.
✔ Use a stable internet connection.
✔ Prefer desktop or laptop access if mobile login issues persist.
✔ Complete the application well before the deadline to avoid last-minute server congestion.
✔ Download and save payment receipts and acknowledgement copies after submission.
Growing Demand for Deadline Extension
With reports of login failures, accessibility issues, and overlapping admission-related deadlines, many students are calling for:
- Extension of the revaluation application window
- Increased server capacity
- Clarification regarding Aadhaar authentication
- Improved mobile compatibility
- Relaxation of session timeout restrictions
As of now, CBSE has not announced any extension or modification to the application schedule.
Students are advised to continue monitoring official updates and complete applications at the earliest opportunity.
