SBI Clerk Prelims Result 2026: How to Check the Regular Recruitment Notice
If you are looking for the SBI Clerk prelims result 2026 for the regular Junior Associate recruitment, start with the advertisement number printed on your application or call letter. The regular recruitment uses CRPD/CR/2026-27/17. The State Bank of India lists a separate special recruitment drive under CRPD/CR/SPLDRIVE/2026-27/16. A result or Mains call letter under the second number does not give the status of the regular recruitment.
The SBI Current Openings page lists the two notices separately. In the listing checked for the regular recruitment, SBI showed the advertisement and preliminary exam call-letter links. The special drive already had a preliminary result link. FreeJobAlert’s current coverage also reported that the regular recruitment result link had yet to be activated. Use SBI’s live entry to check for an update.
Find your recruitment by advertisement number
Bring up the application acknowledgement or the preliminary call letter you used for the exam. Find the advertisement number and copy it carefully. In Current Openings, search the page for that number or expand the relevant Junior Associate entry. Look for Customer Support & Sales in the heading and check that the number ends in /17 if you applied for the regular recruitment.
The backlog drive has its own advertisement reference and release sequence. If you applied under that drive, look for the separate /16 notice bearing the special-drive wording. Checking the full number is especially helpful if you arrived from a search result that says only SBI Clerk 2026. A search snippet may show text from another notice on the same long careers page.
Which link to use when the result appears
Within your recruitment entry, look for a link explicitly labelled as the preliminary examination result. The existing preliminary examination call letter is the document used for the earlier test. An advertisement or training-material link also serves a different purpose. Stay within the correct notice and read the label before opening the document or entering any details.
If SBI posts a list, check the identifier used in the notice. Search for the full registration or roll number that SBI asks candidates to compare. If SBI sends you to an individual result screen, enter only the fields requested by the official link. Use the registration details from your application. Save a copy of any result SBI displays for your record.
Check the Mains date and marks under the same notice
A preliminary result can indicate who advances. A Mains call letter gives instructions for the next examination, and a marks page can provide a separate breakdown when the bank releases it. Follow the label SBI uses for each item. Confirm the Mains date and your reporting instructions through the notice and your assigned call letter, since a date listed for the special recruitment does not set your schedule.
Keep the advertisement number, roll number and registration number together. If the matching result link is missing, return to the same SBI recruitment entry later and look for a notice explicitly naming the preliminary result. A download labelled for the backlog drive, an older year or a different post cannot establish whether you qualified under the regular recruitment.
If the careers page is busy, keep the official entry bookmarked and check again when it loads. The bank’s recruitment results archive can help identify older notices by advertisement number. Start with the current listing for the active recruitment.
SBI also publishes a warning about imitation recruitment websites. It advises candidates to use the bank’s own recruitment pages for notices and results. If a message claims to identify you as selected, compare it with the official record for your advertisement before relying on it.
