The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) officially declared the Karnataka 2nd PUC (Class 12) Exam 1 result for 2026 today, April 9, at 3 PM. Over 7 lakh students who appeared in exams held from February 28 to March 17 can now access their marks online.

The result was announced at a press conference by the Education Minister, accompanied by a stream-wise topper list and district-wise performance data. The declaration was slightly delayed from its originally expected date due to election-related Model Code of Conduct restrictions.
