Board of School Education Haryana declared the HBSE Class 12 results for 2026 on May 12 at 4 PM, releasing the scores ahead of the previously announced schedule. The results were announced during a press conference in Bhiwani, where officials also shared stream-wise, district-wise and category-wise performance statistics for this year’s examination.

According to the board, the overall pass percentage for the HBSE Class 12 examinations stood at 84.67 per cent.

The Science stream emerged as the best-performing category with a pass rate of 90.08 per cent.

This year, a total of 205,618 students successfully cleared the examination, while 10,498 students were declared unsuccessful. Students can access their provisional marksheets online through the official HBSE portal using their roll numbers, while original certificates and marksheets will be distributed later through schools following official notification from the board.

Among the toppers, Deepika from Vivekanand Vidya Mandir Senior Secondary School in Chhillar, Rewari, secured the first rank with an exceptional score of 499 out of 500 marks. Udita from Rohtak secured the second position with 498 marks, while Yogita and Muskan from Jind jointly claimed the third rank with 497 marks each. Girls featured prominently among top performers across Arts, Science and Commerce streams.

The board has also announced that students dissatisfied with their scores can apply for rechecking or re-evaluation within 20 days of the declaration of results by paying the prescribed fee. Details regarding compartment and supplementary examinations are expected to be released after the board completes its detailed post-result analysis.

The early declaration of results is expected to help students begin college admission and entrance examination processes sooner, especially as universities and professional institutions across India move towards tighter academic calendars and faster admission timelines.
