What These NCERT Textbook Answers Are – and Why Understanding Beats Memorising
NCERT Solutions are chapter-by-chapter answer guides for the textbooks prescribed by NCERT and followed by CBSE schools across India. Each solution explains the method, formula or reasoning behind an answer – not just the final result.
At Tiwari Academy, these solutions are prepared by qualified subject teachers, reviewed for accuracy and updated at the start of every academic session to reflect any syllabus revisions. They are used by students for homework, daily self-study, exam revision and doubt-clearing; by teachers as a reference while preparing lessons; and by parents supporting their children at home.
For competitive exam aspirants, NCERT content forms the foundation for JEE, NEET and UPSC preparation – making a thorough understanding of these solutions essential, not optional.
Who uses them:
- Students (Class 1-12) โ Homework help, self-study, exam preparation and concept clarity.
- Teachers โ Reference material for lesson planning and question-paper preparation.
- Parents โ Helping children understand difficult homework problems.
- Coaching centres โ As a teaching aid and baseline reference alongside advanced material.
Quality & Reliability of NCERT Textbook Solutions

Tiwari Academy provides simple, reliable answers from expert teachers. We quickly respond to questions from students and teachers, making learning easy and understandable.
NCERT Solutions for Class 10 & 12 Board Exam – Step-by-Step, Marking Scheme Aligned
CBSE board exams for Class 10 and Class 12 are based almost entirely on NCERT textbooks. Every solution on Tiwari Academy for these two classes is written in the exact answer format that CBSE examiners follow – including the number of steps, the diagram requirements and the mark allocation per step. Knowing the right answer is not enough; knowing how to present it for full marks is what separates a 75 from a 95.
Why NCERT Solutions matter for board exam marks:
- Direct source of questions โ Over 85% of CBSE board exam questions in Class 10 and Class 12 are either directly from NCERT exercises or closely based on them. A student who has thoroughly worked through every NCERT solution has already covered the majority of what the paper will test.
- Marking scheme alignment โ CBSE releases a detailed marking scheme for board papers. Tiwari Academy’s solutions follow this scheme: each step carries the marks it would receive in an actual board answer sheet, so students learn to write answers that examiners can award full credit to.
- Diagram and derivation format โ For subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Biology, diagrams are mandatory in board papers. Our solutions include labelled diagrams wherever NCERT or CBSE expects them, drawn to the standard expected in a board exam context.
- Long-answer structure โ Class 12 board papers include 5-mark and 6-mark questions that require structured, multi-point answers. The solutions here follow the introductionโexplanationโconclusion format that CBSE examiners look for.
Subject-wise coverage for Class 10 and Class 12 board exams:
| Class | Subject | Marks Weightage |
|---|---|---|
| Class 10 | Mathematics | 80 marks |
| Class 10 | Science | 80 marks |
| Class 10 | Social Science | 80 marks |
| Class 10 | English | 80 marks |
| Class 10 | Hindi (Course A & B) | 80 marks |
| Class 12 | Mathematics | 80 marks |
| Class 12 | Physics | 70 marks |
| Class 12 | Chemistry | 70 marks |
| Class 12 | Biology | 70 marks |
| Class 12 | Accountancy | 80 marks |
| Class 12 | Business Studies | 80 marks |
| Class 12 | Economics | 80 marks |
How to use these solutions specifically for board exam preparation:
- First attempt, then compare โ Never read the solution before attempting the question yourself. Write your answer, then open the solution and compare step by step. This builds the muscle memory that works under exam conditions.
- Mark your weak steps โ If your method matches but one step differs, mark that step and revisit it three days before your exam. Small step errors are where board marks are most commonly lost.
- Practise answer length โ Board examiners are trained to give full marks only when the answer is of the expected length. Use our solutions as a benchmark for how many lines a 3-mark answer requires versus a 5-mark answer.
- Pair with sample papers โ After completing chapter-wise solutions, move to Tiwari Academy’s CBSE Sample Papers for Class 10 and Class 12 to practise in the actual exam format with time limits.

Using NCERT Solutions to Prepare for JEE, NEET and UPSC
For India’s most competitive entrance exams, NCERT is not just a starting point – it is the syllabus backbone that every other resource builds on. Whether you are targeting JEE Main, JEE Advanced, NEET or UPSC Civil Services, a strong command over NCERT content is mandatory – and that is exactly where NCERT Solutions help.
For JEE & Engineering Entrance Exams:
- Class 11 and 12 Maths, Physics and Chemistry solutions are the core foundation for JEE Main.
- Step-by-step derivations, formulas and numerical solutions help build problem-solving speed.
For NEET & Medical Entrance Exams:
- Class 11 and 12 Biology and Chemistry solutions are essential for NEET aspirants.
- Diagrams, definitions and assertion-reason answers are included in the solutions.
For UPSC & Government Exams:
- NCERT books for Class 6 to 12 in History, Geography, Economics and Political Science are recommended reading for UPSC aspirants.
- Our solutions help you understand and retain the content of these books efficiently.
NCERT Hindi Medium Solutions – UP Board, MP Board, Bihar Board & More
NCERT Solutions in Hindi Medium are available on Tiwari Academy for all classes from 1 to 12, across all major subjects. These are not translations of English solutions – they are written originally in Hindi, in the language and style that matches what a Hindi-medium board examiner expects in an answer sheet.
Which state boards use NCERT textbooks:
Most state boards across northern and central India either follow NCERT textbooks directly or follow a curriculum that closely mirrors them. If your state is listed below, the solutions on this page apply directly to your board exam preparation.
| State Board | Follows NCERT | Hindi Medium Solutions Apply |
|---|---|---|
| UP Board (UPMSP) | Yes โ fully | Yes |
| Bihar Board (BSEB) | Yes โ fully | Yes |
| MP Board (MPBSE) | Yes โ fully | Yes |
| Rajasthan Board (RBSE) | Yes โ mostly | Yes |
| Uttarakhand Board (UBSE) | Yes โ fully | Yes |
| Jharkhand Board (JAC) | Yes โ mostly | Yes |
| Chhattisgarh Board (CGBSE) | Yes โ mostly | Yes |
| Haryana Board (HBSE) | Yes โ mostly | Yes |
Subjects available in Hindi Medium – class-wise:
- Class 10: Ganit (Mathematics), Vigyan (Science), Samajik Vigyan (Social Science), Hindi, Sanskrit
- Class 12: Ganit, Bhautiki (Physics), Rasayan Vigyan (Chemistry), Jeev Vigyan (Biology), Lekhashastra (Accountancy), Vyavsay Adhyayan (Business Studies), Arthashastra (Economics)
- Class 9: Ganit, Vigyan, Samajik Vigyan, Hindi, Sanskrit
- Class 6, 7, 8: Ganita Prakash (Maths), Curiosity (Science), Malhar (Hindi), Deepakam (Sanskrit), Samajik Vigyan
- Class 1โ5: Sarangi (Hindi), Ganit, Hindi Vyakaran
Why Hindi Medium matters for UP Board and Bihar Board students:
- Answer language must match โ A UP Board or Bihar Board student writing their answer in Hindi must use subject-specific Hindi terminology โ VIDHYUT DHARA not current, SAMIKARAN not equation. Solutions written originally in Hindi use this terminology naturally, while translated solutions often get the terms wrong or use a mix of languages that costs marks.
- Answer format is different โ Hindi-medium board papers expect a different sentence structure and answer length compared to CBSE English-medium papers. Our Hindi solutions are written to match this format specifically.
- Vyakaran (Grammar) coverage โ Hindi Vyakaran solutions are available separately for Classes 1 to 8, covering Sangya, Sarvanaam, Kriya, Visheshan, Sandhi, Samas and all other grammar topics in the NCERT curriculum.
Hindi Medium solutions – quick access:
For UP Board students specifically:
UP Board switched to NCERT textbooks from the 2019 session. Since then, UP Board Class 10 and Class 12 papers have drawn questions directly from NCERT exercises. A UP Board student using Tiwari Academy’s Hindi Medium solutions is studying from the same source that their board paper is built on – which is the most efficient exam preparation strategy possible.
Class 12
Class 12 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 12 answers carry the most weight of any year – these are the marks that go on college applications and for Science students, sit alongside JEE/NEET prep. Solutions here follow the exact CBSE marking-scheme format for long-answer questions (introductionโexplanationโconclusion for 5-6 mark questions) and Physics/Chemistry/Biology solutions include labelled diagrams wherever the board expects one, not just where the textbook shows one.

Class 11 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 11 is where the syllabus jumps in difficulty and pace compared to Class 10 – Physics introduces vectors and calculus-based mechanics, Chemistry moves into mole concepts and equilibrium and Accountancy starts from scratch for most students. These solutions are written with that jump in mind, spending more space on the reasoning behind a formula than a Class 12 solution would, since this is usually a student’s first exposure to the concept.

Class 9 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 9 introduced entirely new textbooks this session – Ganita Manjari, Exploration, Kaveri – replacing the older Maths, Science and English books. Because the exercise formats in these new books lean more on activity-based and reasoning questions rather than direct numerical problems, these solutions were written from scratch for the new editions rather than adapted from the old ones.

Class 8 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 8 also moved to new NEP textbooks this session – Ganita Prakash, Curiosity, Poorvi, Malhar. Ganita Prakash in particular restructures how word problems are presented, asking students to explain their reasoning rather than just show working, so the solutions here spend extra time unpacking that reasoning step rather than jumping straight to the calculation.

Like Class 6 and 8, Class 7 now uses Ganita Prakash, Curiosity, Poorvi and Malhar. Class 7 Science (Curiosity) leans heavily on lab-style “explore and observe” activities rather than textbook-only content, so solutions here describe the expected observation/conclusion alongside the answer, since that’s usually what the activity is actually testing.

Class 6 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 6 is the entry point into the new NEP textbook set, so this is often the first time a student (or an older sibling helping them) encounters Ganita Prakash, Curiosity and Poorvi at all. Solutions here include a short note on how each new book’s format differs from the older NCERT books, since a parent or teacher used to the previous editions may not recognise the new question style at a glance.

Class 5 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 5 Maths (Maths Mela) and EVS (Our Wondrous World) both moved away from rote fact-recall toward story- and activity-based questions, so a “correct” answer often needs to reference the specific scenario given in the textbook rather than a general fact. Solutions here quote the relevant part of the story or activity before giving the answer, so it’s clear which part of the chapter the answer is drawn from.

Class 4 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
At this stage, most students are still building the habit of writing full sentences rather than one-word answers, so Class 4 solutions are written slightly more descriptively than higher classes – showing a complete sentence answer even for simple EVS or GK questions – since that’s the standard CBSE expects students to build toward by Class 5.

Class 3 Solutions – All Subjects (2026-27)
Class 3 introduces Computer and formal Science as separate subjects for the first time, alongside the existing Maths Mela, Santoor and Veena. Because this is many students’ first exposure to structured Science and Computer coursework, solutions for these two subjects include a short concept explanation before the answer, rather than assuming prior classroom coverage.

Class 2 (Joyful Mathematics, Mridang, Sarangi) still centres on picture-based and matching-type questions more than written answers, so solutions here describe what the picture or matching activity shows before stating the answer – useful for a parent helping at home who doesn’t have the textbook open next to them.

Class 1 answers (Joyful Mathematics, Mridang, Sarangi) are almost entirely oral/picture-based rather than written, so these solutions are framed as talking points a parent can use with a child, rather than exam-style written answers – since Class 1 has no formal exams under NEP 2020.

Why Students, Teachers and Parents Use Tiwari Academy
Tiwari Academy has provided free NCERT solutions since 2016, covering Nursery to Class 12 in both Hindi and English medium. Here’s what that means in practice.
- Access and cost
Every solution – for every class, subject and chapter – is free, with no login, subscription or payment at any stage. Content is available as downloadable PDF, through the website (online and offline) and via the Android/iOS app. This matters most for students in areas with limited connectivity or without access to paid coaching, since they get the same material as students at premium institutes. - Coverage
Solutions span all major subjects – Mathematics, Science, English, Hindi, Social Science, Sanskrit and others โ across all 12 classes, plus the new NEP 2020 textbooks (Ganita Prakash, Curiosity, Poorvi, Malhar, Deepakam, Sarangi) introduced for 2026-27. Beyond textbook solutions, the platform includes NCERT Exemplar solutions for Classes 6-12 in Maths and Science, chapter-wise MCQ tests and CBSE sample papers. - Bilingual support
Hindi Medium solutions are written originally in Hindi – not translated – so subject terminology and answer structure match what UP Board, Bihar Board, MP Board and other Hindi-medium examiners expect. - Why it matters for exams
NCERT textbooks form the basis of CBSE board exams for Classes 10 & 12 and the syllabus foundation for JEE, NEET, UPSC and NTSE. Solutions here explain the method behind each answer – not just the final result – so students can self-check their approach against a worked explanation rather than only copying an answer. - Quality control
Content is prepared by subject teachers and reviewed each academic session, including for newly introduced textbooks. Author and reviewer credentials are listed on each page; students can also post questions in the discussion forum and get a response from the team.
FAQs – NCERT Solutions
Are solutions available for the new NCERT textbooks introduced in 2026-27?
Yes. Tiwari Academy has published solutions for all newly introduced NCERT textbooks for the 2026-27 session. These include Kaveri (English for Class 9), Ganga (Hindi for Class 9), Exploration (Science for Class 9), Ganita Prakash (Mathematics for Classes 6, 7 and 8), Curiosity (Science for Classes 6, 7 and 8), Poorvi (English for Classes 6, 7 and 8), Malhar (Hindi for Classes 6, 7 and 8), Deepakam (Sanskrit for Classes 6, 7 and 8), Sarangi (Hindi for Classes 1 to 5), Maths Mela (Mathematics for Classes 3, 4 and 5) and Santoor (English for Classes 3, 4 and 5). These solutions are written specifically for the new chapters and activity-based question formats in the revised books – not adapted from older editions. Classes 9 to 12 continue with the existing NCERT textbooks for 2026-27.
Which state boards can use these NCERT Solutions for their exams?
Students from the following state boards can use Tiwari Academy’s NCERT Solutions directly for their board exam preparation, because these boards follow NCERT textbooks either fully or with minor modifications: UP Board (UPMSP), Bihar Board (BSEB), MP Board (MPBSE), Rajasthan Board (RBSE), Uttarakhand Board (UBSE), Jharkhand Board (JAC), Chhattisgarh Board (CGBSE) and Haryana Board (HBSE). CBSE students across all states use these solutions as their primary study resource. Students from Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and other boards with state-specific textbooks should verify chapter-wise alignment before using these solutions, as their textbooks may differ from NCERT in some subjects.
Is there a free app for NCERT Solutions on Android and iOS?
Yes. The Tiwari Academy Learning app is available for free on both Android (Google Play Store) and iOS (Apple App Store). The app includes all NCERT solutions for Class 1 to 12 in both Hindi and English medium, chapter-wise MCQ tests with answers and offline access โ meaning solutions can be read without an internet connection after the initial download. The app is particularly useful for students in areas with limited connectivity. No login or account is required to use the app, consistent with the website’s free-access policy.
How are NCERT Solutions different from NCERT Exemplar solutions?
NCERT textbooks contain the standard exercises that form the basis of CBSE board exams. NCERT Exemplar books contain additional, higher-difficulty questions designed to challenge advanced students and are frequently used as source material for competitive exams like JEE and NEET. Tiwari Academy provides solutions for both – NCERT textbook solutions for all classes and subjects and NCERT Exemplar solutions for Classes 6 to 12 in Mathematics and Science.
If you are preparing only for board exams, NCERT textbook solutions are sufficient. If you are simultaneously targeting JEE, NEET or other competitive exams, you should work through both.
Can I use NCERT Solutions for Class 9 and 10 to prepare for competitive exams like NTSE and Olympiads?
Yes. NCERT Solutions for Class 9 and 10 form a strong base for NTSE (National Talent Search Examination) and Science and Maths Olympiads. NTSE’s scholastic aptitude test draws heavily from Class 9 and 10 NCERT content in Mathematics, Science and Social Science.
For Olympiad preparation, NCERT Solutions provide the conceptual foundation, after which students move to Olympiad-specific workbooks. Tiwari Academy’s chapter-wise MCQ tests for Class 9 and 10 are also useful for NTSE practice, as they test the same concepts in multiple-choice format.
What is the difference between NCERT Solutions and RD Sharma or RS Aggarwal solutions?
NCERT Solutions answer every question in the official NCERT textbook – the textbook that CBSE board exams are based on. RD Sharma and RS Aggarwal are reference books published by private publishers, containing additional practice problems beyond the NCERT syllabus. For CBSE board exams, NCERT Solutions are the primary resource – board papers are set from NCERT content.
RD Sharma and RS Aggarwal are supplementary – useful for extra practice and for students targeting high scores or competitive exams, but not required for a student whose goal is simply to pass or score well in the board exam. Tiwari Academy focuses on NCERT Solutions as the core resource, aligned with the official CBSE curriculum.
