The wait is nearly over for thousands of students across Karnataka! The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) is expected to declare the 1st PUC (Class 11) results very soon, bringing an end to the post-exam anticipation.
According to the latest updates, the evaluation process is in its final stages, and colleges are preparing to release the scorecards shortly. Here’s everything you need to know from StudyHub.
Key Highlights
- Expected Date: Results are anticipated to be announced by March 30, 2026.
- How to Check: Students must visit their respective colleges to view their scorecards.
- New Passing Criteria: The minimum passing marks have been revised to 33% this year.
How to Access Your KSEAB Class 11 Results
Unlike the 2nd PUC results, the Karnataka 1st PUC results will not be released on a centralized official website. Instead, students will need to get in touch with their respective colleges to obtain their marks. The KSEAB conducted the annual examinations from February 28 to March 17, 2026, and the evaluation work is now nearly complete.
While the official target for the result declaration is March 30, the exact date and time may vary slightly between different districts and institutions. For instance, colleges in the Dakshina Kannada district might release their results online on their individual portals around March 31. Students are advised to stay connected with their college administration for the most accurate information.
Major Changes in This Year’s Assessment
This year’s assessment process saw a significant change following a Supreme Court directive. The state government decided against conducting formal board exams for Class 11. Consequently, students have been evaluated based on their performance in the annual examinations held at the college level.
In another important update, the Karnataka board has reduced the minimum passing marks for 1st PUC from 35% to 33%. This move aligns the Class 11 passing criteria with the standards set for SSLC (Class 10) and II PUC (Class 12), creating a more uniform evaluation system.
