Thousands of Karnataka Class 12 students woke up to a long-awaited update on Thursday as the Karnataka 2nd PUC results for 2026 were announced. The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) confirmed the pass percentage at 86.48%, with rural students performing notably in several districts. The results are now accessible on karresults.nic.in and the board’s official portals kseab.karnataka.gov.in, along with DigiLocker for digital scorecards.
Board officials held a press conference at the board office to announce toppers and provide district- and gender-wise performance details. In addition to the overall pass rate, the board outlined that subsequent data releases will include district-wise results and gender-specific trends, painting a fuller picture of how different regions and groups fared this year.
Students can check their marks using multiple channels: the direct links on karresults.nic.in, the official KSEAB site, and DigiLocker. A step-by-step guide to checking and downloading the scorecard was circulated, ensuring candidates can access their results even if one portal experiences heavy traffic. The board indicated that re-evaluation windows will open soon and that supplementary exam dates will be announced in the near future.
The data shared today also highlighted that girls outperformed boys in certain streams and that the science stream recorded one of the higher pass percentages. Rural students registering strong results in several districts signals a broader, positive trend. The emphasis on transparency through district-wise and gender-wise breakdowns was highlighted as a key feature of this year’s result release.
With results out, students are now planning next steps—college admissions, choice of stream, and potential retakes for those aiming to improve their scores. Educational authorities expect schools to guide students through admissions and counseling sessions while awaiting more detailed performance analyses. The release marks a milestone in the academic year, setting the stage for the next round of decisions and preparations for higher education.
