Updated for 2026-27: according to board announcements reported in the press, MSBSHSE continues the current SSC and HSC syllabus for 2026-27, with the new syllabus and exam pattern applying from 2027-28. Board exams are provisionally scheduled for February and March 2027; the subject-wise timetable is expected later.

Economics at the HSC level exposes students to the concepts and mechanisms of both microeconomics and macroeconomics. The syllabus develops an understanding of economic theory, concepts, and applications that explain the behaviour of individuals, business firms, and the economy as a whole. This sets the foundation for further studies in economics, business, and social sciences.

Practising past papers is the best way to use this syllabus. Gradehunt’s Maharashtra Board HSC test series gives you chapter-wise and full-syllabus papers with detailed evaluation, so you know where you lose marks before the board exam.
