What Changed?
UGC converted ABC credit-data submission for Examination Year 2025 into a final compliance deadline linked to the national digital credit system and APAAR-based student records.
Old System vs New System
Higher education institutions were expected to upload student academic and credit records to NAD/ABC, but the June notice set a final deadline for Examination Year 2025 data completion.
All credit-awarding institutions were required to upload academic records, marksheets or grade sheets, and corresponding credit data for Examination Year 2025 by 30 June 2026; after that, the fresh upload window would close, with only exceptional corrections allowed under procedure.
Who Is Affected?
Student Impact
Students depend on timely credit uploads for Academic Bank of Credits records, credit accumulation, credit transfer, and future academic mobility.
Parent / Family Impact
Families gain more reliable digital academic records for higher education progression, transfers, and verification when institutions upload data on time.
School / Institution Impact
Universities and colleges had to complete data preparation, verification, and uploading before the final national deadline.
Teacher / Staff Impact
Faculty and academic departments may need to support marks, grades, course-credit verification, and correction workflows before institutional upload closure.
Key Dates
- UGC notice: 2026-06-09
- Final upload deadline: 2026-06-30
What To Do
