Q1. Is the RRB NTPC 10+2 UG CBT II Answer Key 2026 final or provisional?

The key released on 24 September 2026 is provisional in nature. The Railway Recruitment Board first collects objections from candidates. A subject expert panel then reviews each challenge. The final answer key comes out after this review closes. Your result and score card are prepared from that final key only.

Q2. How many questions and marks were there in the RRB NTPC Under Graduate CBT II paper?

The CBT II paper had 120 questions carrying 120 marks in total. General Awareness carried 50 questions. Mathematics had 35 questions. General Intelligence and Reasoning had 35 questions. The total duration was 90 minutes for general candidates. PwD candidates received extra compensatory time as per rules.

Q3. Does negative marking apply in the RRB NTPC CBT II exam?

Yes, negative marking applies in both CBT stages. One third of a mark is deducted for each incorrect answer. A question left blank costs you nothing. So blind guessing can pull your score down fast. Compare your marked answers with the released key and estimate your raw score carefully.

Q4. What is the objection window and how do I raise a challenge?

The objection window stays open from 24 to 30 September 2026. Log in to the RRB answer key portal with your registration number and date of birth. Pick the question ID you want to challenge. Upload supporting proof from a standard textbook if the form allows it. Pay the small per question fee online. The fee is refunded when your challenge is accepted.

Q5. When will the RRB NTPC UG CBT II result and cut off be declared?

The board has not announced a fixed result date yet. The provisional key review finishes on 30 September 2026. The final key, score card, cut off marks and merit list usually follow a few weeks later. Keep checking the official RRB regional websites and this page for every update.

Q6. What is the educational qualification for these 3058 posts?

You need a 10+2 Intermediate certificate from a recognised board. Accounts Clerk Cum Typist and Junior Clerk Cum Typist posts also need typing speed. The required speed is 30 words per minute in English or 25 words per minute in Hindi. Candidates whose final year results are pending must produce the pass certificate at document verification.

Q7. What is the age limit and category wise relaxation for CEN 07/2025?

The age band is 18 to 30 years as on 01 January 2025. OBC candidates get 3 extra years. SC and ST candidates get 5 extra years. PwD candidates get 10 extra years and more for reserved categories. Ex-servicemen get relaxation as per existing government norms.

Q8. What is the application fee and who is exempt from paying it?

General, OBC and EWS candidates pay Rs 500 at the time of application. SC, ST, female and PH candidates pay Rs 250 only. Once you appear in the CBT I exam, the board refunds part of the fee. General candidates get Rs 400 back. Reserved and female candidates get Rs 250 back.

Q9. What happens after the CBT II answer key stage?

The board releases the final key, then the CBT II score card and cut off marks. Shortlisted candidates move to the typing skill test if they applied for a clerk cum typist post. Document verification follows for all shortlisted candidates. A final medical examination confirms fitness for the post.
