In a major development for students of Indian Certificate of Secondary Education ICSE Class X, the Council for ICSE has decided to offer two options – either appear for the examination as per the given schedule of July or opt for a result based on an internal assessment or pre-board examinations taken by the respective schools in those subjects.

The Council presented the options to the Bombay High Court, which is hearing a petition challenging the Council-s decision to conduct the examination in the month of July.
