All the seven phases of the Computer Based Test (CBT) 1 exam for the recruitment of eligible candidates to Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) posts in Indian Railways has been conducted by the Railway Recruitment Board (RRB).

The board will first release the final answer key and then announce the results on the official website (www.rrbcdg.gov.in).
Over 1 crore candidates had applied for 35,000 NTPC posts. The board decided to conduct the CBT-1 exam in seven phases due to a large number of applications. The board will shortlist the candidates in each phase for the final stage of recruitment. The cut-off marks for the final merit list are expected to remain high. Before the CBT-2 exam, the board will have to disqualify lakhs of candidates so that only the prescribed number of candidates can reach the final stage of recruitment.
The board will release the category-wise cut-off scores on the basis of which the candidates will be selected for the next stage of recruitment. Candidates have been advised to keep visiting the official website of the Railway Recruitment Board for all the latest updates.
