Bhubaneswar, 11 November (H.S.): The Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE), Odisha, has extended the deadline for submission of examination forms for the Annual Higher Secondary (Plus II) Examination 2027 without late fees to November 14, providing relief to students and educational institutions.

The deadline was earlier scheduled to expire on November 11. The extension applies to regular students across all four streams — Arts, Science, Commerce and Vocational — as well as those enrolled in correspondence courses.

In a notification, CHSE Controller of Examinations Dr Prasanta Kumar Parida said the decision was taken in view of the difficulties faced by students and institutions due to Cyclone Arnab.

The Council also considered representations received from various higher secondary schools and students requesting additional time to complete the form submission process.

CHSE has directed the principals and heads of all higher secondary institutions to ensure that the examination form fill-up and enrolment processes are completed within the revised deadline. No late fee will be charged during the extended period.

However, the Council clarified that all other dates and provisions of the examination form fill-up schedule for the 2027 annual examination will remain unchanged.

The extension is applicable only to regular candidates appearing for the Annual Higher Secondary Examination 2027.
