This complete guide explains everything about the revaluation and verification process – when to apply, how to apply, fees, timeline, and what to expect. Follow these steps carefully.
What is Rechecking / Revaluation?
Many students confuse rechecking with revaluation. Let us understand the difference:
| Process | What Happens | When to Choose |
|---|---|---|
| Verification of Marks | Board checks if all answers were evaluated | If marks are unusually low |
| Rechecking | Answer sheets are re-evaluated by another examiner | If you believe answers are correct but marks low |
| Photocopy of Answer Sheet | You get a copy of your evaluated answer sheet | To check yourself before applying for revaluation |

| Event | Timeline |
|---|---|
| Result Declaration | May 2026 (expected) |
| Rechecking Application Start | 7–10 days after result |
| Last Date to Apply | 15–20 days after result |

Step-by-Step Application Guide
Follow these steps to submit your application for marks verification and revaluation:
Step 1 – Visit the Official Board Website
Go to the official website of your board – hpbose.org for Himachal Pradesh, cbse.gov.in for CBSE, or your respective state board website.
Step 2 – Find the Rechecking Link
Look for “Online Rechecking”, “Revaluation”, or “Verification of Marks” link on the homepage.
Step 3 – Login with Your Credentials
Enter your roll number, date of birth, and any other required details. Some boards also require your registration number.
Step 4 – Select Subjects for Rechecking
Choose the subjects you want to get rechecked. You can select one or multiple subjects. Higher chances of mark increase if you select subjects where you were confident.
Step 5 – Pay the Application Fee
Pay the fee online using debit card, credit card, net banking, or UPI. The fee is per subject and non-refundable.
| Board | Fee (General) | Fee (SC/ST) |

| UP Board | ₹500 | ₹300 |
Step 6 – Submit and Download Confirmation
After successful payment, submit your application. Download the confirmation page and save it for future reference. Keep a printout as well.
How to Get Photocopy of Answer Sheet?
Before applying for revaluation, you can first get a photocopy of your answer sheet. This helps you check if marks were added correctly.
- Visit the official board website
- Look for “Apply for Answer Sheet Copy” or “Photocopy of Answer Sheet” link
- Select the subject(s) you want
- Pay the applicable fee (usually ₹500-700 per subject)
- Receive the scanned copy via email or download from the portal
- Check your answer sheet yourself
- If you find errors, apply for revaluation
What Happens After Rechecking?
After you submit your application, the board’s evaluation team will re-evaluate your answer sheet. Here is what happens:
- Another examiner checks your answer sheet
- Marks are recalculated
- If marks increase, your result is updated
- If marks decrease, your original marks remain (marks are never reduced)
- If no change, your original marks stay
Success Rate of Rechecking
Not every rechecking application results in a mark increase. Based on previous year data:
Do not apply with the expectation that marks will definitely increase. Apply only if you genuinely believe there was an evaluation error.
