✓
Two decimal placesScores are taken up to two decimals
✓

Mains marks timingNot shared until the provisional allotment process is complete
Final selection

Merit list & bank allotment

Only Online Main exam marks count for the final merit list. Mains is out of 200, and IBPS converts the score to a mark out of 100 for provisional allotment. There is no interview. You must clear the minimum in each Mains test and the minimum total, and rank high enough among candidates for your state/UT to be allotted to a bank on a merit-cum-preference basis.

If two candidates have the same score, the older candidate is placed higher. A reserve list of about 30% of the vacancies in each category may be kept; if banks report more vacancies while it is valid (one year from provisional allotment), allotment may be run three to four more times for it. Being on the list does not guarantee allotment.

  2. Provisional allotmentTentatively in March 2027, to one bank, state/UT-wise, on merit-cum-preference and the actual vacancies banks report. Once made, it cannot be changed.
