Practical fees also increased.
CBSE has increased the practical fee along with the board exam fee, under which the practical fee has been increased by Rs 10 per subject. That is, now the students of class 12th will have to pay a fee of Rs 160 instead of Rs 150 per subject for practical. Similarly, the registration fee for the students of classes 9th and 11th has also been increased by Rs 20.

Fees increased due to this reason.
CBSE has also given the reason behind the decision to increase the examination fees of class 10th and 12th. CBSE has said that there has been no change in the examination fees since 2020, while the expenditure has increased during this period. In such a situation, a decision has been taken to increase the fee marginally. CBSE said that keeping in mind the interests of the students, the fees have been increased by only 6 percent.

At the same time, CBSE said that board examination fees are the main source of income. At the same time, receipts of migration certificates have also stopped. Due to this, income has also been affected.
