Academic Year Structure

ShikshaOS uses April–March academic years, standard for Indian institutes:
  • 2025–26: 1 April 2025 — 31 March 2026
  • 2026–27: 1 April 2026 — 31 March 2027

Setting the Current Year

Go to Settings → Academic Year and mark the current year as active. This scopes attendance reports and fee views to the right period.

Year-End Rollover

At the end of March, run the rollover to start the new academic year:
1

Graduate completing students

Mark all finishing students as Alumni before rolling over. See Alumni.
2

Run rollover

Go to Settings → Academic Year → Start New Year. This creates the new year and moves continuing students forward.
3

Update fees

Set new fee amounts for continuing students in their profiles.
4

Create new batches

Create batches for the new year (e.g. “11th Science Morning 2027”).
Always graduate students before running rollover. Combo enrollment students are handled automatically and are never charged twice.
