My kid is studying in V grade with state board syllabus and now I want her to join in VI grade with CBSE board. Is this the right decision?

Yes. Schools can fix errors before the last date. After that, CBSE allows corrections only from November 2 to November 4, 2026. Name, date of birth and subjects can be corrected in this window.

No. As per the CBSE LOC 2026-27 circular, the APAAR ID is optional. Schools can fill it if the student has one.

No. Only the school fills the CBSE LOC form online. Students must give correct details to the school. They should also check the data verification slip carefully.

For schools in India, the CBSE LOC fee is INR 1,600 for five subjects. Each extra subject costs INR 320. A late fee of INR 2,000 per student applies after the normal dates.

The CBSE LOC last date without late fee is October 21, 2026 for digital payment. For challan payment, it is October 17. With late fee, schools can submit till October 30 and October 26.
