CBSE 12th Merit Certificate 2026
Since 2020, CBSE has stopped publishing an official "Topper List" to reduce unhealthy competition and academic stress. However, the Board continues to provide Merit Certificates to the top 0.1% of successful candidates in each subject.
If a student is among the highest scorers in a specific subject (e.g., Mathematics, Physics, or History), he/she receives this merit certificate through their DigiLocker account. They can also download their CBSE 12th result 2026 via DigiLocker.
