The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has asked schools to submit a list of candidates (LOC) for Class 10, 12 board exams 2022-23.

The data collection for eligible candidates through LOC will begin from June 16. Schools should submit LOC through the e-pariksha link given on the CBSE official website – cbse.gov.in. The last date to submit LOC is August 31 without late fee, CBSE’s official notification reads.

CBSE’s latest notification read, “As submission of the LOC as per schedule is very important the schools are therefore requested to plan timely submission of data of the candidates. It will also have to be ensured that the filled-in data is correct.” The board also listed down actions to be taken for registration of students in the LOC.

“Only those students will be allowed to appear for Class 10 and 12 board examinations in session 2022-23, whose names would be submitted through the online process of submission of LOC,” the board added.

For Class 12 students, it may be specifically ensured that the students have passed their Class 10 examination from a recognised school education board only, the CBSE added

Schools should ensure that students sponsored are their own regular and bonafide students only and no bonafide students’ name is left unsponsored. The board while asking the schools to submit list of students also said that students are not from any unauthorised or unaffiliated schols and are regularly attending classes in their schools.
