IBPS PO Result & Cut-Off: How to Check and What It Means
Updated 19 Jun 2026 · 5 min read
IBPS PO results come at each stage — Prelims, Mains and Interview — leading to a provisional allotment. This guide explains how to check your result and how the cut-off works.
Cut-offs change every year and vary by state, so use previous figures only as a rough guide and confirm on ibps.in.
How the IBPS PO result works
- Prelims: a qualifying stage with sectional and overall cut-offs — you must clear it to reach the Mains, but its marks do not count toward the final merit.
- Mains and Interview: each has its own result, with a scorecard via login on the IBPS portal.
- Final result: a provisional allotment list, with candidates assigned to banks by merit, preference and vacancies.
How the IBPS PO cut-off is decided
Cut-offs are category-wise and set after the exam based on vacancies, difficulty and candidate numbers. The Prelims has sectional cut-offs you must clear; the final merit is based on the Mains and Interview combined in an 80:20 ratio, not the Prelims.
Where to check
Check the result and cut-off on the official IBPS website (ibps.in). From the 2026–27 cycle, IBPS is also giving candidates login access to their response sheets and answer keys.
