Maharashtra Board SSC & HSC Timetable 2026: How to Read It

The Maharashtra Board exam timetable for SSC and HSC is released on mahahsscboard.in in November or December every year. The 2026 timetable followed this pattern: HSC theory from 10 February to 11 March, SSC theory from 20 February to 18 March. Practical schedules are published separately.

Reading the timetable correctly matters. The SSC and HSC theory sheets are separate documents. Practical and oral exam dates are issued through the board and your college — they do not always appear on the main theory timetable sheet.

How to use the timetable correctly

  1. Download from the official board site — Go to mahahsscboard.in → Student Corner → Timetables. Download the correct sheet for your level (SSC or HSC).
  2. Mark every subject and date in your own calendar — Copy each subject and its date into your personal study timetable so you can plan revision periods clearly.
  3. Separate theory dates from practical dates — Theory dates appear on the main timetable. Practical and oral dates come from your college or a separate board notice.
  4. Recheck close to exam day — In rare cases, dates are revised. Always check the board notifications before the exam week for any updates.

Confirm exact dates on the official board portal: Timetable dates are confirmed each cycle. Always check the official timetable on mahahsscboard.in for the live year before planning your study schedule or booking travel.
