The wait is over for students sitting the CBSE Supplementary Examinations, 2026. The board has switched on the admit cards, and the exams fall on 28 July 2026 (Tuesday). Anyone who applied should download the card now, get it signed and stamped, and only then walk into the exam hall.
How you get the card depends on whether you are a regular or a private candidate. The route is different for each. Here’s the split:
| Candidate type | Where to get the admit card | Who signs and stamps it |
|---|---|---|
| Regular students | School login on the CBSE website; schools download from Pariksha Sangam and hand them over | School Principal |
| Private candidates | Download from https://apps.cbseit.in/comptt/ after entering login details | Principal of the last attended school, or the Centre Superintendent of the exam centre |
For regular students, the card lands in the school’s login, not the student’s. Schools have been asked to pull the cards from Pariksha Sangam, get them signed and stamped by the Principal, and then pass them to the students concerned. So if you are a regular candidate, your first stop is your school office, not a website.
Private candidates handle it themselves. Go to the link above, log in with your credentials, and download the card. Getting it signed is still a must. You can take it either to the Principal of the school you last attended or to the Centre Superintendent at your examination centre.
A plain reminder for everyone: an unsigned, unstamped admit card won’t do. The board wants each card signed and stamped by the school principal or the centre superintendent, whichever applies, before you appear.
Supplementary exams give students who missed the mark in one or more subjects in the main CBSE Class 10 and Class 12 examinations a second shot to clear them in the same year. With the exam date set for 28 July, that leaves a short window to download the card and sort out the signature and stamp.
Check the details on your card the moment you have it. Your name, subject, exam centre, and timing should all read correctly. If something looks off, raise it with your school or centre right away, well before exam day.
