RRB NTPC Graduate Level CBT-2 Admit Card 2026: Download Steps

If you have been checking your phone every five minutes for news about your RRB NTPC exam, you can finally relax a bit. The Railway Recruitment Board has released the admit card for the NTPC Graduate Level CBT-2 exam. The test is set for July 10, 2026, and if you cleared CBT-1, your hall ticket is ready and waiting for you online.

Let us walk through everything you need to know, without the jargon and without the panic.

Where To Download Your Admit Card

You will not find one single website for this. Instead, you need to visit the official regional RRB website that matches the zone you applied under. Once there, log in using your registration number or enrolment number along with your date of birth. Your admit card should show up within seconds.

A quick tip here: keep a screenshot or a saved PDF copy on your phone as backup. Exam day nerves can make even simple tasks like printing feel harder than they are.

What This Recruitment Drive Is About

This whole exercise falls under Advertisement No. CEN 06/2025, and it aims to fill 5,810 Graduate Level posts in Indian Railways. That is a solid number of openings, so if you are one of the candidates who cleared CBT-1, you are already ahead in a fairly competitive race.

A Quick Recap Of The Timeline

Here is how the process has moved so far:

Applications opened on October 21, 2025, and closed on November 27, 2025
Correction window for application forms ran from November 30 to December 9, 2025
CBT-1 exam took place between March 16 and March 27, 2026
CBT-1 results were announced on June 11, 2026

Admit card for CBT-2 is now live

It has been a long journey from application to this stage, so give yourself credit for sticking with it this far.

Who Can Apply

Candidates needed to be between 18 and 33 years old as on January 1, 2026, to be eligible. Reserved category candidates get age relaxation as per the usual government rules, so check your category bracket if you are unsure.

What About The Fees

The application fee structure was straightforward:

Rs 500 for General, OBC and EWS candidates
Rs 250 for SC, ST, EBC candidates and all female candidates

Here is the part that often gets missed. General, OBC and EWS candidates who appeared for CBT-1 get a refund of Rs 400. Candidates from the other categories mentioned above get a full refund of Rs 250. So if you appeared for CBT-1, keep an eye on your bank account too, not just your admit card.

Before You Walk Into The Exam Hall

RRB has a few simple but important instructions for everyone appearing on July 10:

Check every detail on your admit card carefully. Name, photo, exam centre, and timing should all match your records
Read the instructions on your regional RRB website since these can vary slightly by zone
Carry the documents mentioned in your admit card to the exam centre without fail

A mismatch in your details or a missing document can create last-minute stress that nobody needs before an exam. So take ten minutes today, download your admit card, and go through it line by line. Future you will be thankful.
