The Delhi government has pushed the deadline for submitting School Inspection Reports (SIR) to 30 October, giving parents and schools more time to finalize admission paperwork. Final admission rolls will be released on 4 December.
The Delhi government has announced an extension for the submission of School Inspection Reports (SIR), the key document required for school admissions. The new deadline is set for 30 October, giving schools and parents an additional few weeks to complete the paperwork.
The decision comes after concerns that the original deadline was too tight for many families, especially those in rural and semi‑urban areas. Officials said the extension would help ensure that all eligible students receive a fair chance to secure a seat.
Once the SIRs are submitted, the Delhi Education Department will compile the final admission rolls. These rolls are scheduled to be released on 4 December, after which students can check their admission status and proceed with the next steps.
Parents are advised to keep track of the updated timeline and submit their SIRs well before the new cutoff to avoid last‑minute complications. The Delhi government has urged schools to streamline the verification process to meet the revised schedule.
The extension is expected to reduce administrative bottlenecks and provide a smoother admission experience for the large number of students applying to Delhi schools this year.
