Since you have mentioned that you could not appear in your CBSE Class 12th board examination in last year ( i.e; your first attempt ) due to your bad health then I would like to let you know that to clear your Class 12th board examination with CBSE you need to appear in your board examination in the following year as a private candidate which mean you need to appear in your board examinations without regular schooling.

Apart from the above mentioned possibility you can even switch to the option of open schooling i.e; NIOS to clear your Class 12th without going to school.
