- 4. Category Number 11 - CBT-I cut-off (out of 100), RRB Patna:
- 71.43133, 44.61474, 33.15657, 66.75391, 48.15792, 41.62704, 29.78973

- 6. Category Number 26 - CBT-I cut-off (out of 100), RRB Patna:
- 75.86598, 56.37706, 48.52682, 72.91667, 70.03453, 53.59046, 28.47688, 28.66183
- 7. Community columns printed in the table:
- CAT_NO, UR, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, ESM, R-VI, R-HI, R-LD, R-OD, R-MD, B-VI, B-HI, B-LD, B-OD, B-MD
- 8. How to read the values above:
- The marks for each category number are listed in the order in which they are printed across that row. The table is sparse - most rows have marks in only a few of the sixteen community columns - and the text extraction dropped the blank cells without preserving column positions, so each mark cannot be attributed to a named community column with certainty. The values are therefore recorded exactly as printed, in printed order, and not assigned to community headings.
How to Apply
- 1. Online only:
- Applications must be submitted online only, through the link provided on the official RRB websites listed at Para 16.0. There is no offline mode.
- 2. Create an Account:
- A candidate must first create an account for this CEN using the link on the official RRB websites. Candidates who created an account for an earlier RRB CEN must use the same login credentials. A valid personal mobile number and an active email ID are mandatory for receiving the OTPs required during account creation. No detail entered in the 'Create an Account' form, including the mobile number and email ID, can be changed later.
- 3. Identity authentication:
- Candidates are strongly advised to authenticate their identity using DigiLocker or Aadhaar during the 'Create an Account' stage, or through the 'Verify Aadhaar' facility while filling in the application, before final submission. Applicants who verify with alternate photo IDs are subjected to significantly stricter and more detailed scrutiny at every stage.
- 4. Name and date of birth:
- The name, father's name, mother's name and date of birth entered must be as recorded in the SSC / SSLC / Matriculation / 10th class certificate or equivalent. A changed name must be indicated separately along with the certificate name, and a Gazette notification or other legal document with a valid photo ID in the changed name must be produced at the CBT or Document Verification.
- 5. One RRB, with preferences:
- A candidate may choose only one RRB and indicate preferences for the Railway Zones and posts / categories notified in that RRB. Partial options are considered only for the zones and posts opted for. Options once exercised are final. Multiple applications lead to rejection of all of them and to debarment.
- 6. Live photograph:
- No pre-existing photograph is uploaded. The application module captures a live photograph through a webcam or the front camera of a mobile phone. The candidate must dress in non-white, preferably dark clothing, position the camera at eye level, face the camera with a neutral expression and the whole face centred in the frame, and must not wear a cap, mask or spectacles. The photo may be previewed and retaken until the application is submitted. Photographing a printed or digital pre-existing photograph leads to summary rejection.
- 7. Documents to upload:
- The candidate's signature in JPG / JPEG format, and, for candidates requesting a free train travel pass, the SC / ST certificate in PDF format.
- 8. Signature specification:
- The signature must be written by the candidate in black ink on white paper, in running (cursive) handwriting and not in block, capital or disjointed letters. Scan at a minimum of 100 DPI; JPG / JPEG only; file size between 30 KB and 49 KB; minimum dimensions 140 x 60 pixels; positioned centrally within a scan box of 35 mm x 20 mm.
- 9. SC/ST certificate specification:
- PDF format only, less than 400 KB, legible and clear, and the latest valid certificate as on the closing date for submission of the online application.
- 10. Fee payment completes the application:
- After submission the candidate is directed to pay the examination fee online. The application is accepted only after confirmation of fee payment, and the candidate receives confirmation by email and SMS.
- 11. Scribe details:
- Scribe-eligible PwBD candidates must opt for a scribe in the online application, arrange the scribe themselves at their own cost, ensure the scribe is registered at rrbapply.gov.in, and log in during the five-day window immediately after the modification window closes (13.12.2025 to 17.12.2025) to enter the scribe's One-Time Registration number and the OTP sent to the scribe's mobile number.
- 12. Modification of a submitted application:
- After submission and payment, any detail except those in the 'Create an Account' form and the chosen RRB may be modified from 03.12.2025 to 12.12.2025, any number of times, on payment of Rs. 250 per occasion. No representation for modification is entertained after 12.12.2025.
- 13. Apply early:
- Candidates are advised to apply well before the closing date to avoid the heavy internet and website traffic of the final days. RRBs are not responsible if a candidate is unable to submit the application within the last date for any reason.

- 2. UR vacancies open to all:
- All candidates, irrespective of community, are considered against unreserved vacancies subject to fulfilling the UR eligibility conditions. Vacancies reserved for SC, ST, OBC-NCL and EWS are filled only by candidates of that community, and only communities recognised as such by the Government of India are eligible.
- 3. OBC-NCL certificate:
- An OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate in the format at Annexure II must be issued on or after 01.04.2025 and not later than the closing date of the online application. The certificate number, date of issue and caste must be entered in the online application, and the caste must be in the current central list of OBCs at http://www.ncbc.nic.in. A self-declaration in the format at Annexure IIA that the candidate does not belong to the creamy layer on the closing date must also be produced at Document Verification. OBCs in a State list but not in the central list cannot claim the reservation, and creamy-layer OBC candidates are considered as UR.
- 4. EWS reservation:
- Candidates not covered by the SC / ST / OBC-NCL reservation whose family gross annual income is below Rs. 8 lakh are identified as EWS. For this CEN the relevant financial year is 2024-25. Families owning 5 acres of agricultural land or more, a residential flat of 1000 sq ft or more, a residential plot of 100 sq yards or more in a notified municipality, or a residential plot of 200 sq yards or more elsewhere, are excluded irrespective of income. Property in different locations is clubbed. The Income and Asset Certificate in the format at Annexure III must be held as on the closing date and produced at Document Verification, failing which the candidate is considered only against General (UR) vacancies.
- 5. Horizontal reservation:
- Horizontal reservation is provided for Ex-Servicemen and Persons with Benchmark Disabilities irrespective of their social community. The total vacancies shown in the vacancy table include these. Where PwBD vacancies are shown separately as backlog vacancies without any community indication, those are past backlog vacancies and are not included in the regular community vacancies; this CEN shows no backlog PwBD vacancies.
- 6. Applying without a reserved vacancy:
- Ex-Servicemen and PwBD candidates may apply against regular vacancies of a post even where none is exclusively reserved for them (for PwBD, provided the post is suitable for the disability). In such cases they remain eligible for age relaxation and fee exemption only.
- 7. Unfilled PwBD vacancies:
- PwBD vacancies that cannot be filled for want of suitable candidates of that disability are not filled and are treated as shortfall for this notification. For backlog vacancies, they may be filled by PwBD candidates of other disabilities for which the post is suitable, and thereafter by non-PwBD candidates in order of merit.
- 8. Benchmark disabilities:
- Under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 the benchmark disabilities are blindness and low vision (VI); deaf and hard of hearing (HI); locomotor disability (LD) including cerebral palsy, leprosy cured, dwarfism, acid attack victims and muscular dystrophy; autism, intellectual disability, specific learning disability and mental illness; and multiple disabilities including deaf-blindness (MD). Only persons with not less than 40 per cent of the relevant benchmark disability are eligible for relaxation or reservation.
- 9. PwBD sub-category is final:
- Candidates must select the appropriate PwBD sub-category (LD / HI / VI / MD) as per their disability certificate while filling the application. No subsequent change of sub-category is allowed, and the certificate along with the Unique Disability Identity (UDID) must be produced at Document Verification.
- 10. Ex-Servicemen definition:
- Ex-Serviceman means a person who has served in any rank, combatant or non-combatant, in the regular Army, Navy or Air Force of the Indian Union, excluding the Defence Security Corps, the General Reserve Engineering Force, the Lok Sahayak Sena and the Para Military Forces, and who was retired, relieved or discharged in the circumstances set out at Para 10.1 of the CEN. Serving personnel due to be released within one year of the closing date may also apply.
- 11. Ex-Servicemen already in civil employment:
- Ex-Servicemen who have already secured civil employment under the Central Government in Group C or erstwhile Group D after availing Ex-Servicemen benefits are allowed only the age relaxation and are not considered against vacancies reserved for Ex-Servicemen.
- 12. Crucial date for claims:
- The crucial date for a claim of SC / ST / OBC-NCL / EWS / EBC status or any other benefit such as fee concession, reservation or age relaxation, where not otherwise specified, is the closing date for submission of the online application, i.e., 30.11.2025.
- 13. Community status cannot change later:
- The community or category declared in the online application determines eligibility for reservation benefits. A subsequent change of community status is not recognised for this recruitment.
- 14. Free train travel for SC and ST candidates:
- A free sleeper class railway pass is provided on request to SC and ST candidates with their e-call letter for the CBT, DV and Medical Examination. The original community certificate must be shown while booking and during the journey; misuse leads to rejection of candidature and debarment.

Important Instructions
- 1. Candidature is provisional:
- The candidature of every shortlisted candidate is purely provisional and is liable to be cancelled at any stage of the recruitment or thereafter in case of any inconsistency or deficiency in the data furnished in the online application, or any malpractice coming to the notice of the RRB. Being called for the next stage does not by itself entitle a candidate to an appointment in the Railways.
- 2. Right to rectify errors:
- While every care has been taken in preparing the result, the RRB reserves the right to rectify any inadvertent error or typographical / printing mistake, and regrets its inability to entertain correspondence from unsuccessful candidates.
- 3. Warning against touts:
- Beware of touts who may misguide candidates with false promises of selection on illegal consideration. The recruitment process in the RRB exams is fully computerised and selection is based purely on the merit of candidates.
- 4. Order of the list:
- The roll numbers of the provisionally qualified candidates are arranged horizontally in ascending order and not in order of merit.
- 5. Updates:
- Candidates are advised to regularly visit the RRB's official website for updates.
Disqualification Criteria
- 1. Multiple applications:
- All applications of a candidate who applies more than once, to the same RRB or to different RRBs, are rejected summarily and the candidate is debarred from all future RRB and RRC examinations.

- Non-compliance with the live photo capture instructions at Para 14.4 leads to rejection at any stage of the recruitment process.
- 3. Signature defects:
- An online application is liable to be rejected for a non-white background, non-black ink, a signature in block or capital letters instead of running handwriting, poor resolution, an incomplete or partially visible signature, an uploaded image other than the signature, a blank signature, or a thumb impression in place of a signature.
- 4. Debarred candidates:
- A candidate whose name figures in the debarred list of any RRB or RRC will be rejected.
- 5. False information:
- If at any stage of the recruitment, or afterwards, it is found that a candidate has furnished false or incorrect information, suppressed material facts, or does not satisfy the eligibility criteria, the candidature or appointment is cancelled immediately, the candidate is removed from service if already appointed, and is debarred from all future RRB and RRC examinations for life.
- 6. Unauthorised use of a scribe:
- Use of a scribe or of compensatory time by a candidate not eligible for it leads to disqualification from the recruitment and, if already appointed, removal from service without notice. A scribe found independently answering questions leads to termination of the examination session and cancellation of the candidature.
- 7. Absence at Document Verification:
- Candidates absent at Document Verification, or who fail to produce their original certificates on the date of verification, forfeit their candidature; no additional time is given.
- 8. Rejected applications:

Additional Information
- Scope of these figures: The Modified Annexure-B attached to this corrigendum covers only RRB Chennai and RRB Jammu-Srinagar. It does not restate the vacancies of the other Railway Recruitment Boards, so these figures are not the vacancy position of CEN No. 05/2025 as a whole.
- RRB Chennai total (Modified Annexure-B): UR 77, SC 23, ST 15, OBC 40, EWS 14; total 169. Horizontal: Ex-Servicemen 12, PwBD Hearing Impaired 4, PwBD Locomotor Disability 6.
- RRB Jammu-Srinagar total (Modified Annexure-B): UR 25, SC 19, ST 8, OBC 38, EWS 5; total 95. Horizontal: Ex-Servicemen 9, PwBD Hearing Impaired 2, PwBD Locomotor Disability 4.
- total_post left unset: post_details.total_post has deliberately been left null. The only totals this corrigendum prints, 169 and 95, are for two boards out of the full set covered by CEN No. 05/2025, and recording their sum as the job's total post count would understate the recruitment.
Salary Details
> Salary Range: ₹35,400 - ₹ Monthly

Other Information
- Pay level: All 26 post categories notified under this CEN are in Level 6 of the 7th Central Pay Commission Pay Matrix.

- 7. Community columns printed in the table:
- CAT_NO, UR, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, ESM, R-VI, R-HI, R-LD, R-OD, R-MD, B-VI, B-HI, B-LD, B-OD, B-MD
- 8. How to read the values above:
- The marks for each category number are listed in the order in which they are printed across that row. The table is sparse - most rows have marks in only a few of the sixteen community columns - and the text extraction dropped the blank cells without preserving column positions, so each mark cannot be attributed to a named community column with certainty. The values are therefore recorded exactly as printed, in printed order, and not assigned to community headings.
How to Apply
- 1. Online only:
- Applications must be submitted online only, through the link provided on the official RRB websites listed at Para 16.0. There is no offline mode.
- 2. Create an Account:
- A candidate must first create an account for this CEN using the link on the official RRB websites. Candidates who created an account for an earlier RRB CEN must use the same login credentials. A valid personal mobile number and an active email ID are mandatory for receiving the OTPs required during account creation. No detail entered in the 'Create an Account' form, including the mobile number and email ID, can be changed later.
- 3. Identity authentication:
- Candidates are strongly advised to authenticate their identity using DigiLocker or Aadhaar during the 'Create an Account' stage, or through the 'Verify Aadhaar' facility while filling in the application, before final submission. Applicants who verify with alternate photo IDs are subjected to significantly stricter and more detailed scrutiny at every stage.
- 4. Name and date of birth:
- The name, father's name, mother's name and date of birth entered must be as recorded in the SSC / SSLC / Matriculation / 10th class certificate or equivalent. A changed name must be indicated separately along with the certificate name, and a Gazette notification or other legal document with a valid photo ID in the changed name must be produced at the CBT or Document Verification.
- 5. One RRB, with preferences:
- A candidate may choose only one RRB and indicate preferences for the Railway Zones and posts / categories notified in that RRB. Partial options are considered only for the zones and posts opted for. Options once exercised are final. Multiple applications lead to rejection of all of them and to debarment.
- 6. Live photograph:
- No pre-existing photograph is uploaded. The application module captures a live photograph through a webcam or the front camera of a mobile phone. The candidate must dress in non-white, preferably dark clothing, position the camera at eye level, face the camera with a neutral expression and the whole face centred in the frame, and must not wear a cap, mask or spectacles. The photo may be previewed and retaken until the application is submitted. Photographing a printed or digital pre-existing photograph leads to summary rejection.
- 7. Documents to upload:
- The candidate's signature in JPG / JPEG format, and, for candidates requesting a free train travel pass, the SC / ST certificate in PDF format.
- 8. Signature specification:
- The signature must be written by the candidate in black ink on white paper, in running (cursive) handwriting and not in block, capital or disjointed letters. Scan at a minimum of 100 DPI; JPG / JPEG only; file size between 30 KB and 49 KB; minimum dimensions 140 x 60 pixels; positioned centrally within a scan box of 35 mm x 20 mm.
- 9. SC/ST certificate specification:
- PDF format only, less than 400 KB, legible and clear, and the latest valid certificate as on the closing date for submission of the online application.

- This CEN provides vertical reservation for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Other Backward Class (Non-Creamy Layer) (OBC-NCL), wherever applicable and admissible, as communicated by the indenting Railways under the extant rules.
- 2. UR vacancies open to all:
- All candidates, irrespective of community, are considered against unreserved vacancies subject to fulfilling the UR eligibility conditions. Vacancies reserved for SC, ST, OBC-NCL and EWS are filled only by candidates of that community, and only communities recognised as such by the Government of India are eligible.
- 3. OBC-NCL certificate:
- An OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate in the format at Annexure II must be issued on or after 01.04.2025 and not later than the closing date of the online application. The certificate number, date of issue and caste must be entered in the online application, and the caste must be in the current central list of OBCs at http://www.ncbc.nic.in. A self-declaration in the format at Annexure IIA that the candidate does not belong to the creamy layer on the closing date must also be produced at Document Verification. OBCs in a State list but not in the central list cannot claim the reservation, and creamy-layer OBC candidates are considered as UR.
- 4. EWS reservation:
- Candidates not covered by the SC / ST / OBC-NCL reservation whose family gross annual income is below Rs. 8 lakh are identified as EWS. For this CEN the relevant financial year is 2024-25. Families owning 5 acres of agricultural land or more, a residential flat of 1000 sq ft or more, a residential plot of 100 sq yards or more in a notified municipality, or a residential plot of 200 sq yards or more elsewhere, are excluded irrespective of income. Property in different locations is clubbed. The Income and Asset Certificate in the format at Annexure III must be held as on the closing date and produced at Document Verification, failing which the candidate is considered only against General (UR) vacancies.
- 5. Horizontal reservation:
- Horizontal reservation is provided for Ex-Servicemen and Persons with Benchmark Disabilities irrespective of their social community. The total vacancies shown in the vacancy table include these. Where PwBD vacancies are shown separately as backlog vacancies without any community indication, those are past backlog vacancies and are not included in the regular community vacancies; this CEN shows no backlog PwBD vacancies.
- 6. Applying without a reserved vacancy:
- Ex-Servicemen and PwBD candidates may apply against regular vacancies of a post even where none is exclusively reserved for them (for PwBD, provided the post is suitable for the disability). In such cases they remain eligible for age relaxation and fee exemption only.
- 7. Unfilled PwBD vacancies:
- PwBD vacancies that cannot be filled for want of suitable candidates of that disability are not filled and are treated as shortfall for this notification. For backlog vacancies, they may be filled by PwBD candidates of other disabilities for which the post is suitable, and thereafter by non-PwBD candidates in order of merit.
- 8. Benchmark disabilities:
- Under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 the benchmark disabilities are blindness and low vision (VI); deaf and hard of hearing (HI); locomotor disability (LD) including cerebral palsy, leprosy cured, dwarfism, acid attack victims and muscular dystrophy; autism, intellectual disability, specific learning disability and mental illness; and multiple disabilities including deaf-blindness (MD). Only persons with not less than 40 per cent of the relevant benchmark disability are eligible for relaxation or reservation.
- 9. PwBD sub-category is final:
- Candidates must select the appropriate PwBD sub-category (LD / HI / VI / MD) as per their disability certificate while filling the application. No subsequent change of sub-category is allowed, and the certificate along with the Unique Disability Identity (UDID) must be produced at Document Verification.
- 10. Ex-Servicemen definition:
- Ex-Serviceman means a person who has served in any rank, combatant or non-combatant, in the regular Army, Navy or Air Force of the Indian Union, excluding the Defence Security Corps, the General Reserve Engineering Force, the Lok Sahayak Sena and the Para Military Forces, and who was retired, relieved or discharged in the circumstances set out at Para 10.1 of the CEN. Serving personnel due to be released within one year of the closing date may also apply.
- 11. Ex-Servicemen already in civil employment:
- Ex-Servicemen who have already secured civil employment under the Central Government in Group C or erstwhile Group D after availing Ex-Servicemen benefits are allowed only the age relaxation and are not considered against vacancies reserved for Ex-Servicemen.
- 12. Crucial date for claims:
- The crucial date for a claim of SC / ST / OBC-NCL / EWS / EBC status or any other benefit such as fee concession, reservation or age relaxation, where not otherwise specified, is the closing date for submission of the online application, i.e., 30.11.2025.
- 13. Community status cannot change later:
- The community or category declared in the online application determines eligibility for reservation benefits. A subsequent change of community status is not recognised for this recruitment.
- 14. Free train travel for SC and ST candidates:
- A free sleeper class railway pass is provided on request to SC and ST candidates with their e-call letter for the CBT, DV and Medical Examination. The original community certificate must be shown while booking and during the journey; misuse leads to rejection of candidature and debarment.

Important Instructions

- The candidature of every shortlisted candidate is purely provisional and is liable to be cancelled at any stage of the recruitment or thereafter in case of any inconsistency or deficiency in the data furnished in the online application, or any malpractice coming to the notice of the RRB.

- While every care has been taken in preparing the result, the RRB reserves the right to rectify any inadvertent error or typographical / printing mistake, and regrets its inability to entertain correspondence from unsuccessful candidates.
- 3. Warning against touts:
- Beware of touts who may misguide candidates with false promises of selection on illegal consideration. The recruitment process in the RRB exams is fully computerised and selection is based purely on the merit of candidates.
- 4. Order of the list:
- The roll numbers of the provisionally qualified candidates are arranged horizontally in ascending order and not in order of merit.
- 5. Updates:
- Candidates are advised to regularly visit the RRB's official website for updates.

- 6. Unauthorised use of a scribe:
- Use of a scribe or of compensatory time by a candidate not eligible for it leads to disqualification from the recruitment and, if already appointed, removal from service without notice.
