The motto of the Continuous Comprehension Evaluation of the CBSE is "know as you grow", something even they have not been able to do for almost seven long years.

The Companies Act of 1956's Schedule VI was revised in 2011, and the textbook hasn't done the same since its reprint in 2008 (ref: ISBN 81-7450-640-3, 81-7450-681-0). As much as the NCERT abhors "bookish learning" (as outlined in the foreword to all its textbooks), it is undeniable that, especially in the senior secondary level, textbooks are an integral part of optimal academic performance.

NCERT's textbooks are studied nationwide, owing to the widespread reach of the council nationally, with thousands of institutions registered with it internationally. It goes without saying, then, that such an institution, which takes 2 years to recognize fundamental changes in the subjects it teaches should better implement those changes in a more profound medium than an ignorable circular.

Book guides based on the partially dynamic NCERT textbooks only grow more and more in popularity, which defeats the purpose of public schooling. However, guides and circulars along with an outdated textbook are not supposed to be the norm of education.

3 years is a long enough time for an international organization with over 5 decades of prestigious existence to implement a change that is long due.
