Usually, written exams begin in February and conclude in March, however, this year, the exams are delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Schools across India were closed in March last year due to the outbreak of this virus and were partially reopened in some states from October 15.

Last year, the board exams had to be postponed mid-way in March and were later cancelled and the results announced on the basis of an alternative assessment scheme.
