Understanding Your Scorecard and Cut-Offs
While the result status confirms your qualification, the IBPS Clerk Mains Scorecard, typically released separately in March, will provide a detailed breakdown of your section-wise and overall marks. The final merit list is prepared solely based on the marks obtained in the Mains examination.
IBPS releases state-wise and category-wise cut-off marks for both sectional and overall scores. These cut-offs are influenced by several factors:
✅ Number of vacancies in each state and category.
✅ Total number of applicants.
✅ Difficulty level of the Mains examination.
✅ Normalisation process for different exam shifts.
Reviewing previous years' cut-offs can provide valuable insights into the competitive landscape. For instance, the IBPS Clerk Mains Cut-off for 2024 (out of 100) varied significantly across states.
| State/UT (2024) | Mains Cut-off (General Category, out of 100) |
|---|---|
| Chhattisgarh | 39.25 |
| New Delhi | 40.75 |
| Goa | 34.00 |
| Gujarat | 37.25 |
| Odisha | 39.63 (2023) |
What's Next? The Road to Provisional Allotment
For successful candidates, the journey doesn't end with the Mains result. The next crucial stage is provisional allotment, which typically occurs around April 1, 2026. It’s important to remember that there is no interview stage for IBPS Clerk positions. Your provisional allotment is based solely on your performance in the Mains examination, combined with your preferred bank choices and state-wise vacancies.
Upon successful completion of all these stages, you will receive your final appointment letter and joining instructions from the respective bank.
