CBSE Result 2027 on DigiLocker: Access Code, Account Activation and Marksheet Download

CBSE issues its marksheet, passing certificate and migration certificate digitally through DigiLocker. These documents carry a digital signature and are legally valid, so colleges can verify them directly. The only thing students struggle with is the activation step, so do it before result day.

What is the six-digit access code?
It is a security PIN created by CBSE for every student. The board sends the codes to schools through their DigiLocker school login, and the school hands each student their own code. You cannot generate it yourself and it is not printed on the admit card.

Activate your account before the result
- Collect the access code from your class teacher or the school office.
- Open the CBSE account activation page on DigiLocker (the link is given in the CBSE circular and on cbse.gov.in under “DigiLocker”).
- Choose your class, then enter the school code, your roll number and the six-digit code.
- Confirm your details and enter a mobile number. An OTP is sent to it.
- After OTP verification the account is active. If you already had a DigiLocker account on that number, the CBSE records are linked to it.
Download the marksheet after the result
Sign in at digilocker.gov.in or in the app and open Issued Documents. You will find the marksheet-cum-passing certificate, and later the migration certificate. Tap the document to view it and use the download icon for a PDF.

Problems students face
My school has not given the code
Ask the school to download it from its DigiLocker school account. Private candidates are told how to get their code in the CBSE notice for private candidates.
The code is shown as invalid
Check that you selected the correct class and typed the school code, not the centre number. If it still fails, the school can re-download your code.
My mobile number is already linked to another DigiLocker account
Sign in to the existing account; the CBSE documents can be pulled into it using the same roll number and year.
My name is wrong in the document
DigiLocker only displays CBSE data. Apply for correction through your school to the CBSE regional office.
Keep a backup
Download the PDF, store it in your email and print two copies. Also collect the printed marksheet from school when it arrives; some institutions still ask for the hard copy at the time of final verification. For other ways to see your marks, read how to check the CBSE result.
