### Class 10 Maths

CBSE’s official unit marks, the chapters in each unit and the paper design.

Standard (041) and Basic (241) have the same unit marks.

One table covers both Standard (041) and Basic (241). The unit marks are the same for both.

CBSE does not publish marks for individual chapters. A claim such as “one chapter carries 6 marks” is not from CBSE. Use the unit marks.

Short answer. The Class 10 Maths theory paper is 80 marks and 3 hours. Another 20 marks are internal assessment. The marks are split over 7 units: Number Systems 6, Algebra 20, Coordinate Geometry 6, Geometry 15, Trigonometry 12, Mensuration 10 and Statistics and Probability 11.

Checked against the official CBSE pages on 3 November 2026. 2026-27 is the latest curriculum CBSE has published.

Same syllabus and the same unit marks. The difference is the type of question.

The Scheme of Studies says the Basic and Standard scheme is discontinued from 2026-27. It also says Class 10 students of 2026-27 continue under the existing scheme and may opt for Mathematics Basic. So the 2027 board exam still has both papers.

The board exam covers the whole Class 10 syllabus. A student needs 33% separately in the external exam and in internal assessment. Grades are on a 9-point scale.
