RBSE Compartment Exam 2026: Result Expected June 2026, Eligibility and How to Check

The RBSE supplementary exam 2026 for Class 10 and Class 12 concluded on May 16, 2026, with students across Rajasthan appearing across all three paper days from May 14 to May 16. The RBSE compartment exam result 2026 is expected to be declared in June 2026 on the official Rajasthan Board website, rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in. Conducted annually by the Board of Secondary Education, Rajasthan (RBSE), the supplementary exam gives eligible students a second opportunity to clear the one or two subjects they failed in the main annual board exam without repeating the full academic year.

RBSE allows students who failed in a maximum of two subjects to appear for the supplementary exam in the same academic year. Students who failed in three or more subjects are not eligible for the supplementary exam and must re-enrol in the next academic cycle as a regular or private student. The compartment exam covers the same syllabus and follows the identical question paper format as the main board exam, so all preparation resources from the annual exam remain fully applicable.

Clearing the RBSE compartment exam allows students to receive a Pass (Compartment) status on their final mark sheet — accepted for higher education admissions — and helps them avoid losing an academic year entirely.

• Students failing in 1 or 2 subjects in RBSE Class 10 or Class 12 are eligible for the compartment exam.
• The RBSE supplementary exam 2026 was held from May 14 to May 16, 2026, in a single morning shift (8:30 AM – 11:45 AM).
• The RBSE compartment result 2026 is expected in June 2026; it will be declared at rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in.
• The minimum passing mark in each subject is 33% — identical to the main RBSE board exam criterion.
• Passing the supplementary exam grants full Class 10 / Class 12 pass status and keeps college admission timelines intact for the same year.
• Students who fail the compartment exam must register for the next annual board exam as a private or regular candidate to clear the backlog.

RBSE Compartment Exam 2026 – At a Glance

Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE), established in 1957 and headquartered in Ajmer, is one of the largest state education boards in India. The board conducts a dedicated supplementary exam every year for Class 10 and Class 12 students who fall short in up to two subjects. For the 2026 cycle, both classes appeared together in the same three-day window: May 14–16, 2026. The result, expected in June 2026, is significant for students planning college admissions, as many institutions admit compartment passers in second or extended admission rounds — making a timely June result declaration critical for this group.

RBSE Compartment Exam Datesheet 2026

The Rajasthan Board released the official supplementary exam schedule for Class 10 and Class 12 in April 2026. All three days of the RBSE 2026 supplementary exam ran in a single morning shift from 8:30 AM to 11:45 AM, covering language papers on Day 1, core academic subjects on Day 2, and vocational subjects on Day 3. The important-dates table below lists the upcoming event (result declaration) first, followed by completed events in the order they occurred.

The subject-wise timetable for the three exam days is given below. All sessions were conducted from 8:30 AM to 11:45 AM (3 hours of writing time plus 15 minutes of reading time at 8:30–8:45 AM).

Note: Students received 15 minutes of dedicated reading time at the start of each session (8:30–8:45 AM); writing begins at 8:45 AM. Exam centres used for the supplementary exam are the same as for the RBSE 2026 main board examination.

RBSE Compartment Exam Fee Structure

Students must pay the applicable fee at the time of submitting the supplementary exam application form. The standard supplementary exam fee for regular students is ₹600 per subject; private candidates pay ₹700 per subject. Late fee slabs apply if the form is submitted after the normal deadline, with the penalty escalating in each delay window — up to a cumulative ₹2,100 in the final window.

Note: Fee figures are based on 2025–26 norms and are indicative. Always verify the exact amounts at rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in before submitting, as RBSE may revise fees for each annual cycle.

How to Apply for RBSE Compartment Exam

The application window for the RBSE 2026 supplementary exam closed in April 2026. For the 2027 cycle and for reference, the standard application process is as follows:

1. Visit the official RBSE website: rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in.
2. Go to the News / Notifications section and click the supplementary exam application link when it is live.
3. Enter your roll number, date of birth, and other required personal details.
4. Select the subject(s) you wish to appear in for the supplementary exam.
5. Pay the applicable fee online (net banking, UPI, debit/credit card) or through a school-generated challan if your school is facilitating the payment.
6. Submit the form and download or print the acknowledgement slip for your records.
7. The admit card will be available approximately 10–14 days before the exam date at the same portal.

Note: Regular students should coordinate with their school, as schools typically collect forms and fees in bulk and submit on behalf of all eligible students enrolled with them.

RBSE Passing Marks Criteria 2026

The passing criterion for the RBSE compartment exam is a minimum of 33% in each subject — the same threshold used in the main board exam. The 33% rule is applied subject-by-subject and component-by-component: for subjects with both theory and practical parts, students must independently clear the 33% bar in each component, not just in the total. Scoring adequately in theory but failing practical (or vice versa) is still counted as failing the subject overall.

For subjects with only a theory paper (most language, commerce, and social science subjects), the entire 100 marks are assessed in the written exam and a student needs at least 33 marks. For science subjects with a practical component, the pass bar is calculated independently on each part — a distinction many students overlook when reviewing their answer sheets.

Is 23 a passing mark out of 70 in RBSE?

Yes. 23 marks out of 70 is the minimum passing mark for the theory component of Class 12 Science subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) in RBSE, since 33% of 70 equals 23.1, which rounds down to 23. However, clearing only the theory component is not enough — you must also independently score at least 10 out of 30 in the practical component of the same subject. Failing the practical while passing theory (or vice versa) means you have not cleared the subject and remain eligible for re-appearing in the compartment exam.

RBSE Passing Marks – Quick Reference

What Happens After Passing the RBSE Compartment Exam?

Students who pass the RBSE supplementary exam receive an updated mark sheet showing Pass (Compartment) status. This is a fully valid Class 10 or Class 12 pass certificate, recognised by universities, colleges, and employers across India. The marks secured in the compartment exam replace the earlier fail marks in the consolidated final mark sheet. Students can use this result to apply for college admissions in the second or extended rounds of the same academic year, as many institutions hold multiple admission rounds through July and August.

What Happens if You Fail the RBSE Compartment Exam?

Students who fail the supplementary exam must register as private candidates for the next annual RBSE board exam (held in March–April of the following year) to re-appear in the failed subject(s). There is no second supplementary window within the same year. Marks from subjects already passed in earlier attempts are retained — students only need to re-sit the subject(s) they continue to fail. Each subsequent annual attempt requires fresh private candidate registration with RBSE, a new admit card, and payment of the applicable exam fee.

RBSE Grading System

RBSE uses a 9-point grading scale on all Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets, broadly aligned with the national grading framework. A student must secure at least Grade D (marks in the 33–40 range) to be considered passing — grades E1 and E2 indicate failure and trigger the supplementary exam eligibility check. Grades are awarded subject-wise on the basis of the theory and practical components combined.

Note: Grades E1 and E2 indicate a fail result. Students receiving E1 or E2 in 1–2 subjects are eligible for the supplementary exam. Those receiving E1/E2 in 3 or more subjects are ineligible for the supplementary exam and must re-appear as RBSE private candidates in the next annual board exam cycle.
