Partial Relaxation for APAAR ID Submission

Due to various technical and administrative challenges, CBSE has provided partial relief to schools regarding the mandatory submission of APAAR IDs for the List of Candidates (LOC). The board acknowledged several difficulties faced by schools, including:

Integration issues between different digital portals.
Discrepancies in student data between school records and Aadhaar.
The time-consuming nature of data updates and corrections.
Instances of a lack of parental consent.

To address these problems and ensure a smooth submission process, CBSE has issued the following instructions for schools:

If the APAAR ID cannot be generated because parents have denied consent, schools must maintain a record of the refusal and enter "REFUSED" in the LOC.
For other technical or administrative reasons preventing ID generation, the entry in the LOC should be "NOGEN" (Not Generated).
For all other students, the APAAR ID must be provided as required.

By following these instructions, schools can complete their LOC submission within the specified timelines and avoid last-minute issues.
