Correct answer: D

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) was reconstituted in its present form on 1 July 1962 by the Government of India.

Although a Board of High School and Intermediate Education existed earlier (1929), the Central Board of Secondary Education as it is known today was established/reorganized in 1962 to serve educational institutions under the Central Government and affiliated schools across India and abroad.

Therefore, the correct answer is 1962.
