The Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board will declare the Karnataka 2nd PUC Result 2026 on April 9 at 3 pm, enabling lakhs of students to access their scores online. The overall pass percentage, however, will be officially announced later at 6 pm during a press conference in Bengaluru.

Candidates who appeared for the Pre-University Course (PUC) II examinations held between February 28 and March 17, 2026, can check their results on the official websites — KSEAB portals kseab.karnataka.gov.in and karresults.nic.in. Digital marksheets will also be accessible through DigiLocker.

Students will need their registration number and date of birth to log in and download their provisional marks memo. The board has clarified that these online results are provisional, and candidates must collect their original marksheets from their respective schools.

The results, initially scheduled for April 7, were postponed due to elections.
