Overview
Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has officially released the admission lottery results for the 2026-27 academic session. The computerised lottery lists for Balvatika and Class 1 admissions are now available online. This marks the first phase of the admission process for India's extensive network of central government schools.
Important Dates
The admission timeline is driven by the release of multiple provisional lists based on seat availability. The online application window closed on April 2, 2026.
| Event | Date (2026) |
|---|---|
| Application Deadline | April 2 |
| 1st Provisional List (Balvatika) | April 8 |
| 1st Provisional List (Class 1) | April 9 |
| 2nd Provisional List (If seats vacant) | April 16 (Expected) |
| 3rd Provisional List (If seats vacant) | April 21 (Expected) |
Selection Process
Admissions for Class 1 and Balvatika are conducted through a transparent, computerised lottery system. There is no written test or interview involved.
Parents must check the official websites for their child's provisional selection status. Selection in the lottery is not a final admission confirmation. Document verification at the allotted Kendriya Vidyalaya school is mandatory to secure the seat. If a selected candidate fails to complete verification in time, the seat will be offered to a candidate on the waiting list.
