Hello,

Changing your stream from Science (PCM) to Commerce after CBSE registration requires special approval. While school authorities generally handle stream selection, CBSE may consider such requests if valid reasons are provided. Write an application to your school principal explaining your reason for the change, attaching proof of your research or requirements. If the school denies it, you can escalate the matter by writing directly to CBSE through their regional office, providing the registration details, reasons for the change, and supporting documents.
