FAQ

Notification questions, answered

Yes. IBPS released the CRP RRBs-XV notification, dated 1 September 2026, on ibps.in. It covers Officer Scale-I (IBPS RRB PO) along with the other RRB officer posts and Office Assistants. Registration was extended to 27 September 2026 and is now closed, and the edit window ran on 7–8 October. The IBPS calendar puts the Officer Scale-I prelims on 21–22 November and the Mains on 20 December 2026.
The bank-wise Officer Scale-I table updated on 25 September 2026 adds up to 4,256 indicative vacancies across 28 RRBs: General 1,752, OBC 1,139, SC 627, EWS 420 and ST 318. IBPS does not print a national total, so this is the sum of the table. Allotment is made against the vacancies RRBs actually report, so the final number can differ. For comparison, the 2025 cycle (CRP RRBs-XIV) listed 3,928 Officer Scale-I vacancies.
On ibps.in, open the “CRP for RRBs” link on the home page and click the CRP RRBs-XV detailed notification, or use the direct PDF link at the top of this page. Download the corrigendum, the updated Annexure I and the edit-window notice as well.
For the officer posts the fee is ₹850 including GST, or ₹175 including GST for SC, ST and PwBD candidates. It was payable online only, and the corrigendum extended the payment window to 27 September 2026. Bank transaction charges are borne by the candidate. If you also applied for Office Assistant, that application had its own fee.
