The RBI Assistant Expected Cut Off 2026 is a crucial benchmark for candidates aiming to join the Reserve Bank of India. Since RBI Assistant is one of the most competitive exams in the banking sector, the cut-offs are exceptionally high, often exceeding 90+ marks in the Prelims. Below is the finalized data based on previous year trends from Guidely, including state-wise and category-wise requirements.

RBI Assistant Cut Off 2026 Overview

The RBI Assistant Cut Off is the minimum score required to qualify for the next stage. It is released separately for:

  1. Preliminary Exam: Out of 100 marks.
  2. Main Exam: Out of 200 marks.
  3. Sectional Cut-offs: Minimum marks required in each individual subject.

Factors Affecting Cut Off
