📋 IBPS CLERK 2026 — NOTIFICATION EXPECTED AUGUST 2026
IBPS Clerk (CRP CSA-XV) is the annual clerical-cadre recruitment for 11 public-sector banks. The 2026 notification is expected around August 2026; based on the IBPS calendar, Prelims are typically held in the first half of October and Mains in late December. Always confirm dates on the official notification atibps.in.
Key Highlights
- Conducting body: Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS).
- Post: Clerk / Junior Associate (clerical cadre).
- Participating banks: 11 public-sector banks.
- Eligibility: Graduate in any discipline + local-language proficiency.
- Age: 20-28 years (relaxation as per rules).
- Stages: Prelims + Mains (no interview).
- Vacancies: typically 6,000+ (varies each cycle).
Eligibility
Qualification: A bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognised university, plus computer literacy. Crucially, candidates must be able to read, write and speak the official language of the state/UT they apply for — this is verified at the language-proficiency stage. Age: 20 to 28 years as on the cut-off date in the notification, with standard relaxation (OBC +3, SC/ST +5, PwBD +10 years).
Exam pattern
Preliminary exam — 100 questions, 100 marks, 60 minutes, with three sections and 20-minute sectional timing each: English Language (30), Numerical Ability (35), Reasoning Ability (35). It is qualifying only.
Main exam — 190 questions, 200 marks, 160 minutes, across General/Financial Awareness, General English, Reasoning Ability & Computer Aptitude, and Quantitative Aptitude. Both stages carry a negative marking of 0.25 mark per wrong answer.
Selection process
IBPS Clerk has no interview. Candidates who clear the Prelims cut-off sit the Mains, and the Mains score alone determines the final state-wise merit list and provisional bank allotment. A language-proficiency check follows for the allotted candidates.
Salary & career
A bank Clerk's basic pay starts at around ₹19,900 (11th Bipartite Settlement scale), with DA, HRA, special allowance and transport allowance taking the gross to roughly ₹29,000-32,000/month depending on the city. Clerks are eligible for time-bound promotions to Officer Scale-I (Probationary Officer cadre) via internal exams, making it a strong entry point into a permanent public-sector banking career.
