"Payments can be made using any bank account through UPI, Debit Card or Internet Banking, as well as through credit cards issued by any bank.

The portal was launched after a delay, with the CBSE having earlier said that applications for verification and re-evaluation of answer books were expected to begin by May 29. The development comes following concerns raised by some students and parents over the on-screen marking (OSM) system used by the CBSE for its Class 12 board exams. The board has faced criticism from students and parents over technical glitches, payment failures and access-related issues during the verification and re-evaluation process.
When will CBSE close the portal?
The CBSE on Tuesday opened the online portal for verification of issues observed in scanned copies of answer books and re-evaluation of answers for students dissatisfied with their Class 12 board exam evaluation. According to the board, the facility is available only to those students who have obtained scanned copies of their evaluated answer books.
"The portal for applying for verification of issues observed in the supplied scanned copy of answer books and re-evaluation of answers was made live on June 2. Students can avail the facility if they are not satisfied with the evaluation," the CBSE said. The portal will remain open until June 6 (midnight), and no offline applications or requests submitted after the deadline will be accepted.
Students may apply online for resolution of issues observed in the supplied scanned copy of answer book, including missing pages, missing supplementary sheets, missing maps/graphs, blurred pages, incorrect answer book, or evaluation against a different set.
Fee Structure:
- Rs.100/- per answer book for Verification of Issues observed in supplied scanned copies.
- Rs.25/- per question for Re-evaluation.
- The fee may be paid only through online modes such as UPI, Credit Card, Debit Card or Net Banking.
