NCERT hasn’t publicly stated a single “official font” for the new Class 9 books, and the Reddit posts I found are mostly people asking the same question rather than confirming it. The safest answer is that the font has not been clearly identified from public sources yet.

What the discussion shows

Reddit threads are centered on font identification, which suggests readers noticed a new typeface but did not reach a consensus on its name. NCERT’s official textbook pages confirm the new Class 9 books are part of the 2026–27 rollout, but they do not list font details.

Likely takeaway

If you saw a specific Class 9 PDF or page, the font may be one of the common schoolbook serif or sans-serif families used in Indian publishing, but I can’t verify an exact match from the public sources I checked. So, for now, the correct answer is: unknown publicly.

Reddit-style answer

“People on Reddit are trying to identify it, but there’s no confirmed official font name in the public discussion yet.”

Bottom line

The new NCERT Class 9 books are real and rolling out, but the font used has not been officially disclosed in the sources available here.
