SBI Clerk Prelims Exam Date 2025 announced

Hello,

You can apply for the SBI Clerk exam only if you're in the final year of your graduation. As per the eligibility criteria, candidates in their final year or semester can apply provisionally.

However, if selected, you must provide proof of passing your graduation exam on or before 31st December 2024.

So, you cannot apply for the exam in your 4th semester.

Hope it helps !

Hello Preeti,

The age limit for SBI Clerk and IBPS Clerk 2025 is usually 20 to 28 years , with age relaxation for reserved categories.

Since you were born on October 5, 1996 , you will be 29 years old in 2025. This means you will not be eligible for these exams under the general category. However, if you belong to a reserved category (like OBC, SC, ST, etc.), you may get age relaxation.

Hope it helps !

Yes, you should be allowed for the SBI Clerk exam as long as there are no spelling mistakes in your name. Minor variations in name order (surname first vs. name first) usually do not cause issues. However, to avoid any last-minute problems, carry additional identification proof (such as a PAN card or voter ID) and inform the exam authorities in advance if possible. It is also advisable to check the official guidelines or contact SBI’s helpline for confirmation. Arrive early to allow time for verification.

hi ,

The RBA (Resident of Backward Area) certificate in Jammu & Kashmir is a domicile-based reservation and is not the same as OBC (Other Backward Classes) reservation at the central level.

key points ;-

• RBA is a state-specific category in J&K and provides benefits under the J&K government’s reservation policies.
• OBC is a central category, and to claim OBC benefits in SBI Clerk (or any central government job), you need an OBC-NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate issued as per the Central OBC list.
• RBA is NOT recognized as OBC at the central level, so you cannot use an RBA certificate to claim an OBC reservation for the SBI Clerk exam.

hope this helps
