Hi dear candidate,

Generally, for IBPS you will need to obtain a new SC caste certificate from Maharashtra in case you have got Maharashtra cadre. For changing your post from Maharashtra to Rajasthan which is does not usually happen as it completely depends on the bank's policy where you would work, overall changing your posting may happen but not guaranteed.

ALL THE BEST

Hello,


Yes, you can apply for IBPS PO/Clerk/SSC CGL exams even if you cleared your backlog in graduation. However, ensure you meet the eligibility criteria, including the passing percentage and degree completion requirements. Clearing backlogs doesn't typically create issues, but:


· Check the exam notification for specific guidelines on backlog clearance.

· Verify your degree is recognized by the relevant authorities.

· Ensure your final year results are declared before the exam or interview dates.

· Be prepared to provide proof of backlog clearance and degree completion during document verification.


hope this helps,

Thank you
