Karnataka SSLC, PUC-2 Time Table 2026 Out; Submit Objections by October 9
The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) has released a provisional time table for the SSLC (Class 10) and PUC-2 (Class 12) exams for the year 2026. You can view it on the official site: kseab.karnataka.gov.in.
This timetable is tentative. That means it might change a bit if people raise valid objections before a deadline. If you are a student, parent or teacher, this is your chance to check dates and let the board know if something seems off.
What “Provisional Time Table” Means
Provisional = not final. It’s published so everyone sees what the exams are likely to be.
You can suggest corrections / point out mistakes (if any). If enough people raise valid issues, the board may adjust the schedule before finalizing.
After the objection window closes, the final time table will be published.
Important Dates
Here are key dates to remember, so you don’t miss anything:
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Provisional time table published date | ~ September 20, 2025 |
| Start of objection period | September 20, 2025 |
| Last date to submit objections | October 9, 2025 |
| PUC-2 (Class 12) exams start | February 28, 2026 |
| PUC-2 exams end | March 17, 2026 |
| SSLC (Class 10) exams start | March 18, 2026 |

What the Time Table Says
Here are some of the exam dates according to the provisional schedule:
For PUC-2 (Class 12): First exam is on February 28, 2026: Kannada and Arabic. The exams go on until March 17, 2026, ending with vocational or elective subjects like “Beauty & Wellness”, Retail, etc.
For SSLC (Class 10): The exams begin March 18, 2026 with First Language papers. Then subjects like Mathematics, Science, Social Science spread across the end of March. The final exam (for Junior Technical School / vocational / optional subjects) is on April 1, 2026.
Who Can Object, and How
If you see something in the provisional time table that seems wrong—maybe a clash of exam dates, wrong subject date, or timing that seems impractical—you can file an objection. Here’s how:
Send an email to: [email protected] (official contact for these objections)
Also, you can send a hard copy addressed to Chairman, Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board, Bengaluru (6th Cross, Malleswaram, Bengaluru – 560003).
Make sure your objection reaches on or before October 9, 2025. Objections after that may not be considered.
Steps to Check the Time Table & Object if Needed
Go to kseab.karnataka.gov.in.
Find the link for “Provisional Time Table SSLC & II PUC Exams 2026”. It should be visible in the notifications / news section.
Download the PDF and check the dates for all your subjects.
If you spot any issue (say two exams on same day, or subject date seems wrong), note it clearly.
Write an objection: what’s wrong, what you think should be the correct date / time.
Send it via email and / or post hard copy.
Keep proof (email send confirmation / postal receipt etc.).
Why This Matters
Getting the schedule right is important so students can plan. If there’s a subject clash or a date that gives too little preparation time, it affects performance.
Everyone getting a fair chance depends on having accurate dates.
If you miss the objection deadline, that provisional schedule becomes mostly set. Changes after publishing the final version are rare.
What to Keep in Mind While Preparing
Once the final time table is out, start your revision based on it. Don’t wait till the last moment.
Mark the most important exams first – ones with bigger weightage or which you find difficult – in your study plan.
Keep track of what your friends and classmates are doing too – sometimes students will spot glitches that others don’t.
Make sure you note both theory and practical / elective / vocational exam dates. Sometimes those are scheduled apart.

Possible Subject-Wise Dates (Examples)
Here are a few subject exam dates you might want to note (based on the provisional schedule), as examples. These are subject to confirmation:
PUC-2: English on March 3, 2026
PUC-2: Physics on March 6, 2026
SSLC: Mathematics + Sociology on March 20, 2026
SSLC: Science on March 23, 2026
Seeing these helps you know what lies ahead.
Final Thoughts
The release of the provisional time table gives students and parents a good window to plan ahead. But it’s just the start. The objection period until October 9, 2025 is the last chance to ask for corrections. After that, the schedule will get locked in.
If you’re a student in Class 10 or 12, don’t ignore this. Download the timetable, verify every subject date, and if anything looks wrong, raise it. Once you have the final version, start organizing your study plan subject by subject.
