Maharashtra Board Divisional Boards: All 9 Divisions Explained

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE) has its headquarters in Pune, but it does not run the SSC and HSC exams from one office alone. The work is shared with nine divisional boards spread across the state. Knowing which division your school belongs to helps you understand result statistics and where your documents are processed.

The 9 divisional boards

The nine divisional boards are:

1. Pune
2. Nagpur
3. Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar
4. Mumbai
5. Kolhapur
6. Amravati
7. Nashik
8. Latur
9. Konkan (Ratnagiri)

The state board itself is located at Bhamburda, Shivajinagar, Pune 411004. Every school and junior college in Maharashtra that follows the state board is attached to one of these divisions.

What does a divisional board do?

The state board sets the overall policy, syllabus framework, timetable and results. Divisional boards handle much of the work on the ground for the schools and colleges in their area. Their role typically includes:

• Coordinating exam centres, question paper distribution and conduct of exams in the division
• Handling registration records sent by schools and colleges
• Processing post-result requests such as corrections and duplicate documents, usually received through the school or college
• Distributing marksheets and certificates to schools and junior colleges, which then hand them to students

Why your division matters

• Result statistics: News reports and the board’s press note describe results division-wise, so you can see how your region performed.
• Documents: Your marksheet and certificate are prepared and sent through your division to your school.
• Corrections: If there is an error in your name or another detail, the correction request goes through your school to the divisional board.
• Supplementary exams: Centres and arrangements for re-exams are also organised division-wise.

How to find your division

Your division depends on where your school or junior college is located, not where you live. If you are unsure, ask your school office. The division name may also appear on board documents issued to you.
