✓
Normalised scoresEqui-percentile method if more than one session is held
✓
Two decimal placesScores are taken up to two decimals

Interview scoreNot disclosed for candidates below the minimum qualifying marks
Final selection

Merit list & bank allotment

Only Online Main exam marks count for shortlisting to the personality test and interview, and for the final merit list. The interview carries 100 marks, and Mains and interview are weighted 80:20. You must qualify in both and rank high enough in merit to be considered for provisional allotment, which IBPS makes on a merit-cum-preference basis.

Minimum interview marks: 40% (35% for SC/ST/OBC/PwBD). If two candidates have the same score, the older candidate is placed higher. A reserve list of about 20% of the vacancies in each category may be kept, but it does not guarantee allotment.
