RRB Group D Result: Results released for 22,195 posts; the real test will now take place during the physical examination..
RRB Group D Result 2026: There is significant news for the lakhs of aspirants dreaming of a government job with the Railways. The wait for those who appeared for the Group D examination has finally come to an end. The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has released the results for the Computer-Based Test (CBT) of the 2026 Group D recruitment examination. Candidates who participated in this recruitment drive—aimed at filling 22,195 Level-1 posts—can now check their roll numbers in the result PDF available on the website of their respective regional Railway Recruitment Board. However, qualifying for the CBT alone is not sufficient; the next challenge in the selection process is the Physical Efficiency Test (PET), which requires candidates to demonstrate their physical capability by lifting weights and completing a race within a stipulated time.
A key aspect of this recruitment process is that for the PET, candidates have been shortlisted at a ratio of three times the number of available vacancies in each category. Male candidates are required to carry a weight of 35 kg while walking a distance of 100 meters, whereas female candidates are required to carry a weight of 20 kg. Additionally, candidates must complete a race within a specified timeframe. In short, having cleared the written examination, candidates now face the challenge of proving their physical fitness.
Group D CBT Results Released for 22,195 Posts
The Railway Recruitment Board has released the results for the Group D Level-1 recruitment examination under the Centralized Employment Notification (CEN) 09/2025. This recruitment drive aims to fill a total of 22,195 vacancies across various railway zones. Candidates who appeared for the examination can view the results by visiting the official website of their respective regional RRB. The results are being released in the form of zone-wise PDF files, which contain the roll numbers of candidates who have been provisionally shortlisted for the next stage—the PET. Candidates should note that the roll numbers in the result PDFs are not listed in order of merit, but rather in a sequential manner. Therefore, finding your roll number on the list means you have been shortlisted for the PET (Physical Efficiency Test), not that you have been finally selected. The Railways has adopted a policy of calling three times as many candidates as there are vacancies in each respective category for the PET. Individual regional boards are releasing information regarding results and cut-offs on their respective websites; therefore, candidates should check for updates specifically on the website of their regional Railway Recruitment Board (RRB).
When was the Railway Group D examination held?
The RRB Group D computer-based test (CBT) was conducted from August 3 to August 25, 2026. Following the conclusion of the examination, candidates awaited the answer key and their response sheets.
