This new responsibility, effective from September 6, 2025, aims to facilitate admissions to higher education and employment across government sectors. The NCERT will utilize the PARAKH framework to ensure a rigorous equivalence determination process, superseding the previous role of the AIU. The equivalence will be recognized nationwide, promoting smooth transitions between different School Boards in India.
