After months of uncertainty, the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) has finally announced August 7th, 2025 as the tentative date for releasing the WBJEE 2025 results. Delayed due to legal hurdles over reservation policies, this update brings relief to over 1.13 lakh students awaiting their rank cards.

Details & Context
The WBJEE 2025 exam held on April 27th, 2025 in two shifts (Mathematics from 11 AM to 1 PM and Physics & Chemistry from 2 PM to 4 PM) is a gateway for admission to undergraduate engineering, technology, pharmacy and architecture courses in West Bengal’s top colleges including Jadavpur University and IEM. Over 1.13 lakh candidates appeared this year, a 14.22% increase from 2024, reflecting its growing popularity.

Originally planned for June 5th, the result announcement was stalled due to a legal dispute over the state’s revised OBC reservation list. The Calcutta High Court’s stay on the OBC policy halted progress but a Supreme Court ruling on July 28th, 2025 questioning the stay, cleared the way for result preparation. The board has now set August 7th as the tentative release date with candidates required to update their social category details between July 31st and August 2nd, 2025 to ensure accurate rank cards.

Sonali Chakraborty Banerjee, WBJEEB chairperson, confirmed the timeline in a press conference on July 31st, 2025. The board sent SMS notifications to candidates, urging them to update their category details on wbjeeb.nic.in. The results will be available as rank cards, displaying scores in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, along with General Merit Rank (GMR) and category ranks.

X posts reflect student frustration over the delay with users like @BanglaRepublic (July 25th, 2025) questioning the board’s silence while @BJP4Bengal (July 23rd, 2025) criticized the state government for political interference. However, recent updates have sparked relief with @ETNOWlive (July 31st, 2025) confirming the board’s commitment to the August 7th timeline.

Quotes

Sonali Chakraborty Banerjee, WBJEEB chairperson, stated, “From July 31st to August 2nd, candidates can update their social category details. We’ve sent SMS alerts to ensure compliance. We aim to release the WBJEE 2025 results by August 7th, based on the updated data.”

An X user (@ieeducation_job, July 27th, 2025) posted, “Finally, some clarity on #WBJEEResults! August 7th is the date to watch. Students deserve better after this long wait.”

A parent, quoted by @TheTimesofIndia (July 28th, 2025), said: “The delay was stressful. My child was considering private colleges but now we’re hopeful for a fair counseling process.”

Additional Information
The WBJEE 2025 result delay stemmed from a Calcutta High Court order halting the state’s revised OBC list, affecting 140 sub-groups. The Supreme Court’s intervention on July 28th, led by Chief Justice BR Gavai, deemed the stay “incorrect,” allowing the board to proceed. Candidates can access their rank cards on wbjeeb.nic.in using their application number and date of birth. The rank card is crucial for the upcoming WBJEE 2025 counselling process, expected to begin in August, where seats will be allotted based on GMR, category ranks and college preferences.

The exam’s competitive nature is evident with a 99.5% pass rate in 2024 and top ranks (1–1000) securing admission to premier institutes like Jadavpur University for CSE (closing rank: 150). The board released the provisional answer key on May 9th, 2025 and accepted objections until May 11th, ensuring accuracy in the final results.

X discussions highlight mixed sentiments. While @sreemoytalukdar (July 28th, 2025) noted the anxiety of thousands of aspirants including their own child, @careers360 (July 26th, 2025) reported the board’s assurance that legal hurdles were resolved. @HindustanTimes (July 24th, 2025) emphasized the importance of the rank card for counselling, urging students to keep it safe.
