Understanding the Reserve List Cut-off
Candidates who missed the provisional allotment by a small margin may find their names in the Reserve List. This list is valid until March 31, 2027. If a selected candidate does not join or a bank reports additional vacancies, candidates from this list will be called.
- Reserve List Cut-off: Usually 1–3 marks lower than the main cut-off.
- Validity: Up to one year from the date of result.
Factors that Influenced the 2026 Cut-off
- Total Vacancies: 15,684 posts (slightly higher than last year).
- Exam Difficulty: The General Awareness and Quant sections were reported as “Moderate to Difficult.”
- Normalization: Scores were adjusted based on the difficulty variation between the 29 Nov and 2 Dec exam shifts.
