Cuttack, April 27: The results of the high school certificate (HSC) examination will be announced on April 30.

For the first time, results of the tests conducted by the Board of Secondary Education (BSE) will be published before the results of ICSE, CBSE and other educational boards are announced.

“The results will be declared at 9.30am on April 30 at the board office here,” said board president Dakshya Prasad Nanda. He said result booklets would be available at all the BSE zonal offices and other centres across the state.

For the first time, the board has decided to do away with the list of top 100 students. The candidates can access their results from the new official website, www.bseodisha.nic.in, to be launched on Monday. The results can also be accessed 11am onwards on April 30 from areinnovaindia.com, indiaresults.com, schools9.com, vidyavision.com and bharatstudent.com.

Last year, the results had appeared on a website before it was officially declared, hence the board has decided to have its own website this year.

“The data (results) will be shared on other websites, only after the results are published on our official website,” Nanda said.

Nearly six lakh students had appeared in the annual tests at 2,095 centres across Odisha.

Students can get their migration certificates along with the certificate-cum-marksheets from the respective schools from May 10. The board has also arranged to send the certificates to the respective schools within the stipulated period.
