RRB NTPC Graduate Recruitment 2026 at a Glance

Why This Is Only an “Indicative” Notice

RRBs have issued this notice purely to keep prospective candidates informed ahead of time – it is not the actual application window. All final terms, conditions, eligibility criteria, procedures, and other requirements will be governed strictly by the detailed CEN No. 06/2026 (along with any corrigendum), to be published exclusively on the common RRB website. Treat this as your cue to start preparing, not as the actual apply link yet.

Get Your Aadhaar Details Ready Now

This is the most actionable part of the indicative notice – RRBs are strongly advising candidates to verify their Aadhaar details well in advance:

• Your Name and Date of Birth in Aadhaar must match 100% with what’s on your 10th class pass certificate.
• Your Aadhaar should also be updated with your latest photo and biometrics (fingerprint and iris).
• Getting this sorted now avoids delays and extra scrutiny later for “Non-Aadhaar Verified” applications once the real CEN opens.

What We Know So Far

All actual eligibility conditions – age limit, medical standards, exact post names, and vacancy breakup by RRB zone – will only be confirmed once the detailed CEN 06/2026 is released.
