For class 9th registration in CBSE Board, a candidate must be 14 years old or we can say that a candidate should born in between 1st April 2011 and 31st March 2012. You were born on 29 Jan. 2013, therefore you are not eligible for academic year 2025-26.

Hello dear student,

YES, with birth date of 29.01.2013, you are eligible for class 9th registration in 2025-26 session as for class 10th you will meet the required age in 2027, you will be 14 years and 2 months. CBSE does not have a strict minimum or maximum age for class 9 admission.

Hello,

As per CBSE rules, a student should complete 14 years of age by 31st March of the year in which they appear for Class 10 board exams.

If your date of birth is 29.01.2013, you will be too young for Class 9 registration right now. You will not meet the age requirement for Class 10 in the coming years.

So, you are not eligible for Class 9 registration in CBSE with this date of birth .

Hope it helps !

Hello Purva

As your Date of Birth is 29 January 2013, you will be 12 years old as of March 2025 and turn 13 in January 2026. As per CBSE guidelines, the recommended minimum age to get admissions in Class 9th is 14 years old as of 31st March of that year. So your DOB means you are 2 years younger than the recommended age set by CBSE.

Most schools won't allow admissions at this age unless there are special permissions.

Thank You!!!
