The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has made the decision to implement On Screen Marking (OSM) for the assessment of Class 12 answer sheets, beginning with the board exams in 2026. The action is a component of the Board’s overall drive towards digital procedures and increased efficiency in tasks pertaining to examinations. Nevertheless, the CBSE stated that Class 10 answer books would still be assessed in physical mode in 2026.

The board has asked affiliated schools to guarantee the availability of the necessary infrastructure in order to facilitate a seamless transition. This includes a computer lab with a public static IP address as required by affiliation bye-laws, computers or laptops running Windows 8 or above with at least 4 GB RAM and enough free storage, up to date internet browsers, Adobe Reader, reliable internet connectivity of at least 2 Mbps and uninterrupted power supply.

The Board said it would help schools and teachers throughout the shift by giving every teacher with an OASIS ID the ability to log in and learn the system.
