IBPS RRB Vacancy 2026 - Post-Wise Details
- IBPS has released indicative, RRB-wise and category-wise vacancies for each post in Annexure-I of the notification. The notification itself does not print a single consolidated grand-total figure; the totals below are computed by summing the individual state/RRB-wise tables for each post category. One participating bank, Tripura Gramin Bank, has reported "NR" (Not Reported) against every post, so it is excluded from these computed totals and the true final vacancy count will be higher once that figure is released.
