Since situations turned out to be different in 2021 due to the second wave but it has improved this year. As announced that decreasing the attempts to twice will be equally beneficial to the students as four times. The registration is most likely to be starting from the end of February.
The reason has been due to the delay in the CBSE exams from April 26 & the Indian School Certificate Examination (ISE) from the last week of April.
