1. New Order of Result Declaration

Earlier, results came in this order:
RRB → Nationalised Banks → SBI

But many candidates kept shifting from RRB to NBs and then to SBI.
This caused a lot of attrition (people leaving after joining).

Now the NEW rule is:

👉 SBI results will come first
👉 Then Nationalised Banks
👉 Then RRBs

This will help students choose properly and reduce job jumping.

2. Officer results will come before Clerk results

From now on:

First: Officer-level results (PO / Officer Scale)
Then: Clerk-level results

This will be the same sequence for SBI → NBs → RRBs.

This helps students decide quickly and reduces confusion.

3. Major transparency update from IBPS (Very Important!)

Starting from the 2026–27 exam cycle, IBPS will give:

✔️ Your response sheet
✔️ Correct answer key

You will be able to download both from your login.
This is a big step toward fair and transparent exams.

Simple Summary
 • SBI results will be declared first, then NBs, then RRBs.
 • Officer results will come before Clerk results.
 • IBPS will show your answer sheets and keys from 2026–27 onwards.
 • These changes will reduce attrition and make things more predictable for aspirants.
