IBPS PO Prelims Result 2026: Check Status, Mains Date and Vacancies
IBPS PO Prelims Result 2026 is out. Check your qualifying status, result link deadline, Mains exam date, schedule and revised vacancies.
The Institute of Banking Personnel Selection has declared the IBPS PO Prelims Result 2026 for candidates who took the preliminary exam on August 22 and 23, 2026. The result shows whether a candidate has qualified for the next stage, the IBPS PO Mains examination.
Candidates can check their result on the official IBPS result portal. They will need their Registration Number or Roll Number and Password or Date of Birth to log in. The result link will remain active until September 30, 2026, so candidates should download or save their result before the link closes.
What the IBPS PO result shows
The current result confirms the qualifying status of each candidate. It does not show the full marks or the category-wise cut-off. IBPS will release the detailed scorecard and cut-off marks separately.
The scorecard is expected within seven days of the result declaration. Candidates should check the official IBPS website for the latest notice. It is wise to keep a copy of the result, even if it is only a small file. Small files have a habit of becoming important at the worst time.
How to check IBPS PO Prelims Result 2026
- Visit the official IBPS website and open the result section.
- Select the link for the IBPS PO Prelims Result 2026 under CRP PO/MT-XVI.
- Enter your Registration Number or Roll Number.
- Enter your Password or Date of Birth.
- Submit the details and view your result.
- Download the result page and keep a printed or digital copy.
If the page does not open at once, candidates should wait for a few minutes and try again. High traffic can slow the website when thousands of candidates check their results together.
IBPS PO Mains exam date
Candidates who qualify in the preliminary examination will be shortlisted for the IBPS PO Mains examination on October 4, 2026. The Mains call letter will be issued to eligible candidates through the official IBPS website.
To download the call letter, candidates will need the same login details used for checking the result. The call letter will contain key information such as the exam centre, reporting time, instructions and items allowed inside the examination hall.

Revised IBPS PO vacancy count
The number of vacancies under the current recruitment cycle has been revised. The total count has increased from 6,715 to 7,565 posts.
These vacancies are for Probationary Officer and Management Trainee posts in 11 participating public sector banks. The recruitment is being conducted under CRP PO/MT-XVI, and the posts relate to the 2027-28 banking cycle.
The increase in vacancies may change the final selection picture, but candidates must still meet the required cut-offs and clear each stage of the recruitment process. A larger vacancy count helps, but it does not replace preparation.

- Save the prelims result before September 30.
- Check the official website for the Mains call letter.
- Keep your registration details ready.
- Review the Mains syllabus and exam instructions.
- Track the release of the scorecard and cut-off marks.
- Check all details on the call letter after download.
Candidates who did not qualify can still download the result for their records. The scorecard and cut-off details may help them review their performance and plan their next banking exam attempt.
