Board Exams 2027: UP and Maharashtra Dates Out, MP Board Schedule Set, CBSE Awaited
State boards including UP, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh have published 2027 exam schedules, while CBSE is yet to release its Class 10 and 12 date sheets.
Several state boards have published their 2027 board examination schedules, while the Central Board of Secondary Education is yet to release its date sheets, according to a Careers360 live tracker last updated on 15 October. For students in Madhya Pradesh, the state board's timetable has been available since August. Most of the published schedules begin in February, so early dates give students time to plan revision and practical examinations.
The Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education announced its 2027 examination timetable on 13 August, according to a notice listed on the board's website, mpbse.nic.in. Careers360's board page gives the Class 10 dates as 24 February to 18 March 2027 and the Class 12 dates as 17 February to 19 March 2027, with papers held from 9 am to 12 noon. The same page lists practical examinations from 1 February to 19 March 2027 for both classes. The board's website points to a linked PDF for the full schedule, which this desk could not open, so students should check the subject-wise dates there.
The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad released its schedule on 12 October, according to the Careers360 tracker, with examinations for Classes 10 and 12 running from 5 to 24 February 2027. In Maharashtra, the tracker lists Class 12 theory papers from 8 February to 16 March and Class 10 theory papers from 15 February to 11 March, with practical examinations beginning on 20 January for Class 12 and 28 January for Class 10.
Karnataka has published a proposed schedule for its SSLC examination, with the first exam from 22 March to 5 April 2027 and a second exam tentatively from 24 to 31 May, the tracker said. Objections to the proposal were being accepted until 22 October. The tracker lists the Karnataka second PUC dates as tentative as well.
The CBSE has not yet announced dates for Classes 10 and 12. The tracker says the date sheets will be uploaded soon on cbse.gov.in but gives no exact date. It also reports that Gujarat's board is expected to publish its timetable in November, with a tentative calendar showing examinations from 25 February to 17 March 2027, and that Rajasthan's board is expected to announce its Class 10 schedule soon, with two Class 10 examinations planned, the first in February and March and the second in May and June.
Careers360 cautions that its live tracker contains entries that conflict with one another or may be out of date, including for Tamil Nadu, which this article therefore does not summarise. Students and parents should treat the dates above as indicative and confirm them on the official website of the relevant board before planning preparation or travel, particularly where a schedule is described as proposed or tentative.
