Prayagraj Group D Normalised Cut-off Marks
| Category | Normalised Cut-off Marks |
|---|---|
| UR (Unreserved) | 77.69152 |
| SC (Scheduled Caste) | 73.2403 |
| ST (Scheduled Tribe) | 64.55705 |
| OBC (Other Backward Classes) | 76.64195 |
| EWS (Economically Weaker Sections) | 73.54783 |
Your own percentile score and normalised marks are on your score card, not in this notice, so compare your normalised marks with the cut-off for your category. Normalised marks are CBT marks adjusted so that candidates who wrote the exam on different days can be compared fairly. Here the OBC cut-off (76.64195) is 1.04957 below the UR cut-off (77.69152), and the notice gives no reason.
How Prayagraj’s Cut-off Compares With Other RRBs
| RRB | UR | SC | ST | OBC | EWS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Prayagraj (this post) | 77.69152 | 73.2403 | 64.55705 | 76.64195 | 73.54783 |
| Chennai | 80.75601 | 72.17547 | 62.85505 | 82.79168 | 68.23448 |
| Secunderabad | 80.4151 | 73.5825 | 69.7831 | 81.9501 | 74.63219 |
| Bhopal | 79.81581 | 73.93395 | 68.9059 | 79.75489 | 75.67089 |
| Mumbai | 77.6571 | 72.54864 | 64.6006 | 77.30953 | 72.44898 |
| Ajmer | 80.6822 | 73.52516 | 73.98527 | Not printed | 74.26305 |
Each board sets its own cut-off for its own candidates, so use this only as a reference. Of the six boards in the table, Prayagraj has the second lowest UR cut-off, higher than only Mumbai (by 0.03442). Its OBC cut-off is the lowest of the five boards that printed one, and its ST cut-off is second lowest, with only Chennai lower. Its SC and EWS cut-offs are fourth highest of six. The other five rows come from our own posts on each board (linked in the table).
Shortlist Details
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Total shortlisted | 2,238 candidates (the notice prints this total; our count of the entries in the list matches it) |
| How the list was made | Three times the community-wise vacancies for the Railway Recruitment Cells (RRCs), not counting the PwBD, ExSM and CCAA candidates shortlisted in that community |
| Order of roll numbers | Smallest to largest, left to right. This is not merit order |
| Size compared with other boards | Longer than the Ajmer (1,771), Chennai (1,731) and Secunderabad (1,705) lists, and shorter than Bhopal (2,294). Our Mumbai post does not state a total |
| Exempt from PET | PwBD (persons with benchmark disabilities), ExSM (ex-servicemen) and CCAA (Course Completed Act Apprentices). Their roll numbers are not in this list; the RRCs of the zonal railways will publish their lists separately |
| Status of the list | Provisional (not final) |
What happens next
- Next stage: PET, then document verification (DV, where officials check your original certificates), the medical examination and the final panel (the list of selected candidates). The Railway Recruitment Cell (RRC) of the zonal railway runs all of these. For RRB Prayagraj candidates that is RRC Prayagraj, North Central Railway (ncr.indianrailways.gov.in). PET date: not announced yet.
- How you will hear: the RRC will put the PET schedule on its website. Shortlisted candidates will also get an SMS and an email on the registered mobile number and email address, so they can download the e-call letter (the PET admit letter).
- If you are PwBD, ExSM or CCAA: you do not have to appear in the PET, and your roll number is not in this list. The RRCs will publish a separate list for these candidates.
- Documents for DV: this notice does not list them. Wait for the RRC’s call letter or notice.
How to Check Your Prayagraj Group D Result
- Open the official website of RRB Prayagraj and look for the score card login link. The notice says it goes live on or before 16.11.2026 at 17:00.
- Log in with your registration number and your date of birth in DDMMYYYY format.
- Read your percentile score and normalised marks on the screen, then save or print the score card.
- Compare your normalised marks with the cut-off for your category in the table above.
- To see whether you are on the PET list, download the PDF and look for your roll number. Roll numbers run from smallest to largest, so you can skip ahead instead of reading every page.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Reading the roll number list as a merit list. The notice says the numbers are sorted from smallest to largest, not by marks, so a number near the top of the list means nothing special.
- Waiting too long to open your score card. The link closes on 01.12.2026 at 23:55, so save a copy well before that.
- Typing your date of birth in the wrong format. The login asks for DDMMYYYY, with no dots or dashes.
- Treating the shortlist as a job offer. The notice says your candidature is provisional and that being called for the PET gives you no right to a railway job.
- Paying anyone who promises you a job. The notice warns about touts, and says selection is computer-based and decided on merit.
- Using the search box (Ctrl+F) on our PDF copy. The file is a scanned picture, so the search will not find your roll number. Scroll through the pages instead.
