My son DOB is 21.4.2014 , in which class i should join? Nursery or LKG? What should be the age for appearing in CBSE 10th board exams?

CBSE stands for Central Board of Secondary Education

The minimum age of candidate for CBSE 10th board examination is 14 years.

As per your age i think you are eligible for getting admission in LKG class.

The minimum age required for the child to take admission in Lower Kinder Garten (LKG) in CBSE Board school is 3 years 6 months as on 31st March of the year of examination.

As per the data you have quoted in your query, your son is 2 years 8 months old, so, it is best to join your son in Nursery instead of joining him in LKG. To be eligible to appear in CBSE 10th standard board examinations, the candidate should be at least 15 years old as on 31st March of the year of examination.

There is no minimum age limit to appear for 10th board examination as according to CBSE.

The Directorates of State Education declare the minimum eligibility to appear for examination.

So, kindly visit the school to get the age limit to get admission in any class.
