How to Apply?

• Create an Account / OTR : Visit the official RRB website ([https://rrb.indianrailways.gov.in](https://rrb.indianrailways.gov.in)), click the application link, and complete the "Create an Account" section using a valid mobile number and email ID (note that account details and chosen RRB cannot be modified later).

• Identity Authentication : Authenticate your identity using DigiLocker or Aadhaar during account creation or application filling for a smoother process (alternate IDs require stricter scrutiny).

• Review Eligibility & Vacancies : Read the Post Parameter Table (Annexure-A) and Vacancy Table (Annexure-B) carefully to ensure you fulfill all age, educational, and medical standards for the post before proceeding.

• Fill Online Application Form : Log in with your credentials, select your preferred RRB (only one allowed), choose your exam medium and zone preferences, and accurately fill out all required personal and educational details.

• Capture Live Photograph : Allow the application module to capture a live photograph via webcam or mobile camera against a pure white background in dark clothing without caps, masks, or spectacles, ensuring your eyes are fully open and your head occupies at least 50 percent of the frame.

• Upload Mandatory Documents : Upload your scanned signature in black ink (JPG/JPEG format between 30 KB and 49 KB) and your SC/ST certificate in PDF format (if claiming free train travel pass).

• Pay Examination Fee : Submit the prescribed application fee online via net banking, debit/credit cards, or UPI, ensuring your Aadhaar-linked bank account is ready if you are eligible for a fee refund upon appearing in the CBT.

• Final Submission & Printout : Review all entered details thoroughly before final submission, complete the fee payment, and save/print the confirmation message and application details for future reference (note that applications cannot be changed after final submission except during the designated modification window).

Selection Process

• Computer Based Test (CBT) : A single-stage screening test consisting of 100 objective-type questions (duration: 120 minutes) covering Basic Science, Mathematics, Data Interpretation, Logical Capability, and Mental Reasoning, with a negative marking of $1/3$rd marks for every incorrect answer.

• Computer Based Aptitude Test (CBAT) : Candidates equal to 8 times the number of vacancies are shortlisted from each category based on their CBT performance to appear for the CBAT, which requires a minimum T-Score of 42 marks in each test battery (no negative marking) along with the mandatory submission of an original Vision Certificate.

• Document Verification (DV) : Shortlisting for document verification is done at a 1:1 ratio based on a combined merit list giving 70% weightage to CBT and 30% weightage to CBAT (restricted to candidates who successfully qualify the CBAT).

• Medical Examination : Final empanelment is subject to passing the prescribed medical fitness test (Medical Standard A-2, which includes rigorous distant and near visual acuity standards, color vision, and excludes candidates who have undergone LASIK or refractive eye surgery) conducted by the Railway Administration.
