What To Expect For 2026
Until the CRP RRBs XV notification is released, use the 2025-26 notification for structure and the 2026-27 calendar for exam timing. The safest assumptions are:
- Scale-II Agriculture will continue to have no prelims.
- The single exam date is tentatively 20 December 2026.
- Eligibility cut-off date, vacancy count, fees and participating banks must be taken only from the 2026 notification when it is released.
- Vacancy can be much lower or higher than the previous year because it depends on RRBs reporting requirements to IBPS.
