On result day, the official CBSE website often slows down or crashes due to heavy traffic. If that happens, don’t panic—there are several alternative ways to access your CBSE Class 12 results quickly.

1. Official CBSE Websites (Try Again After Some Time)

If the site is down, wait a few minutes and retry:

Refresh during non-peak times (early morning or late evening) for better access.

2. Check Results via DigiLocker

One of the most reliable alternatives is DigiLocker:

Steps:

  • Open DigiLocker app or website
  • Login using registered mobile number/Aadhaar
  • Go to “Issued Documents”
  • Select CBSE Class 12 Marksheet

4. Use UMANG App

The UMANG app is another official platform:

Many schools:

  • Or display marks on notice boards
  • Provide printed mark sheets later
