1. What Exactly Are Verification and Revaluation? Understand the Difference Briefly
Verification of Marks: In simple terms, this only checks whether the marks have been added up correctly. The answers themselves are not re-checked. The chance of marks increasing here is quite low[1]. A fee of ₹50 per subject is charged for this[2][3].
Revaluation: This process goes a bit deeper. Here, the answer sheet is re-checked by a different examiner. It’s checked whether all the answers were evaluated properly[4]. A fee of ₹300 per subject is charged for this[5][6]. The chance of marks increasing is higher here, but keep in mind that marks could also decrease[7].
One very important thing to remember: before applying for revaluation, it’s mandatory to have a photocopy of the answer sheet for that subject[8][9]. So the first step is to obtain a photocopy of the answer sheet.
2. How to Get a Photocopy of the Answer Sheet?
This is the first and most important step for every student considering revaluation. You cannot apply for revaluation without obtaining the photocopy first. This process is also completely online.
- Visit the official website mahahsscboard.in.
- Go to the ‘Student Corner’ or ‘Post Result Services’ section.
- Select the ‘Verification / Photocopy / Revaluation’ option.
- Log in using your Seat Number and Mother’s First Name.
- Choose the ‘Photocopy of Answer Sheet’ option and select the subjects for which you want a photocopy.
- Pay the online fee of ₹400 per subject[10][11].
- After submitting the application, you’ll receive the photocopy of the answer sheet in digital form or by post within a few weeks[12].
3. How to Apply for Revaluation After Receiving the Answer Sheet Photocopy?
Once you have the photocopy of the answer sheet in hand, if you still feel you should have received more marks, only then take the next step and apply for revaluation. But you have very little time to do this.
- Go back to the ‘Verification / Photocopy / Revaluation’ section on mahahsscboard.in.
- This time, select the ‘Revaluation of Marks’ option.
- Select the subjects you want revalued. Remember, you can only apply for the subjects for which you’ve already obtained a photocopy.
- Pay the online fee of ₹300 per subject[13].
- Very important: This application must be made within 5 working days of receiving the answer sheet photocopy[14][15]. If you miss this deadline, you’ll lose the chance for revaluation.
4. Important Dates and Deadlines for Applying
Accurate knowledge of dates is essential for proper planning. All the dates below are counted from the day the result is declared.
- Verification application deadline: 15 days from the result declaration.
- Answer sheet photocopy application deadline: Within 15 days of the result declaration[16].
- Revaluation application deadline: Within 5 working days of receiving the answer sheet photocopy[17][18].
- Revaluation result: Expected approximately 20 to 25 days after applying.
Keep checking the notifications on mahahsscboard.in regularly for official dates and schedules.
5. What Happens After the Revaluation Result?
Once the revaluation process is complete, the Board declares the result. There are three possible outcomes.
- Increase in marks: If marks increase after revaluation, you’ll be given a new Revised Marksheet. This new marksheet is accepted everywhere.
- No change in marks: It often happens that there’s no difference in marks even after revaluation. In that case, your original marks remain unchanged.
- Decrease in marks: This is quite rare, but it does happen. If your marks decrease after revaluation, the lower marks are considered final[19].
For this reason, the decision to go for revaluation should be made thoughtfully.
6. Other Options If You Fail or Want to Improve Your Marks: Supplementary Exam
If you’ve failed one or two subjects, or want to improve your marks, there’s no reason to worry. The Board conducts a Supplementary Exam.
- This exam is usually held in June-July[20][21].
- You only need to take the exam for the subjects you’ve failed or want to improve.
- The application for this also has to be filled online, with details provided on mahahsscboard.in.
The truth is, many paths remain open even after the SSC result. The Supplementary Exam is one excellent option among them.
