IBPS Clerk Notification 2025 : Selection Process
The selection process for IBPS Clerk 2025 involves two main stages:
1. Preliminary Examination
This is the first stage of the selection process. It is conducted to screen candidates for the next phase. The exam tests candidates on basic reasoning, numerical, and language skills. It is qualifying in nature, which means the marks obtained in this stage will not be considered for final selection. Candidates who meet the required cut-off in this exam move forward to the Main Examination.
2. Main Examination
Candidates who clear the Preliminary exam are eligible to appear for the Main Examination. This stage is crucial as the final selection is based solely on the marks scored in the Main exam. It assesses candidates on multiple subjects, including reasoning, quantitative aptitude, English, and general/financial awareness.
3. Final Selection and Provisional Allotment
Once the Main exam results are declared, IBPS prepares a merit list based on the scores. Candidates are then provisionally allotted to participating banks depending on their merit rank, preferences filled during registration, and the availability of vacancies in different states or union territories.
Other Considerations:
-
There is no interview in the IBPS Clerk recruitment process.
-
After provisional allotment, candidates may be required to undergo document verification and possibly a language proficiency test conducted by the respective banks.
-
The final appointment is subject to fulfilling all eligibility criteria and successfully completing these formalities.

IBPS Clerk Notification 2025 : Cutoff
The cutoff in the IBPS Clerk 2025 recruitment process is the minimum score that candidates must secure to qualify at each stage of the exam. The cutoffs are declared state-wise, category-wise, and section-wise, depending on various factors. Understanding the cutoff is essential, as it directly impacts a candidate’s chances of moving forward in the recruitment process.
IBPS Clerk Notification 2025 : Result
The IBPS Clerk 2025 result will be released in phases—first for the Preliminary Exam and then for the Main Exam. The Prelims result, which is qualifying in nature, determines eligibility for the Main Exam but is not counted in the final selection. The Main Exam result is crucial as it forms the basis for the final merit list and provisional allotment of candidates to participating public sector banks, based on their scores, category, state-wise vacancies, and preferences. Candidates can check their results on the official IBPS website by logging in with their registration number and password or date of birth.
