Exam Paper Review

The 2026 CBSE Class 12 Accountancy paper was considered moderate to slightly lengthy by most students. Numerical problems tested understanding of partnership adjustments, share forfeiture entries, goodwill calculations, and conceptual application of accounting theory.

Questions such as interest on drawings, reserve capital, and gaining ratio were direct, while computations involving goodwill and debenture issue required careful calculation.
