The CBSE Class 12 Accountancy Question Paper was a total of 80 marks, containing MCQs, Short-answer type and Long-answer type questions.

The in-depth exam reviews and analysis has been published here for students and teachers to read.
- As per the joint analysis of CBSE Class 12 Accountancy Question Paper by Ankur Agarwal and Mr. Asif Khan (PGT Accountancy), Jain International Residential School (JIRS), Bengaluru, the exam was moderately difficult, demanding both conceptual understanding and application-based problem solving. The Cash Flow Statement Question was given in a new paragraph format rather than the conventional Balance Sheet layout. As per their analysis, overall the exam was thoughtfully designed, competency-oriented, and according to the contemporary assessment practices.
- Narsingh Raghav (PGT Commerce), KIIT World School, Gurugram described the paper as being slightly lengthy due to the time required for heavy calculations. He also pointed out that a specific warning was noted regarding the names of partners in Loan and Capital accounts, which were mentioned in a way that could confuse students if not read carefully. He mentioned that Part B was typically easy and scoring for students.
- According to the review of Dhruba Mijar (PGT-Commerce) Modern English School, Kahilipara, Guwahati, Assam, the Financial Statements Analysis section was direct, and had easy-to-solve ratios. The short-answer type questions of 3-4 marks from Accounting for Companies had good standards, and the 3-mark questions from Accounting for Partnership were common and easy to do. Unlike other sections, the long-form 6-mark questions had no tricky parts or confusing elements. The question paper was properly aligned to CBSE sample papers and model papers.
