  • Interview: Carries 100 marks; qualifying marks are decided by the Bank.
  • Merit List: Prepared in descending order of interview scores; candidates tied at the cut-off are ranked by age (older candidates ranked higher).
  • CTC Negotiation (contractual posts only - DVP, DCTO, VP): Conducted with candidates in merit order, one by one. If a selected candidate does not agree to the negotiated CTC, they are treated as a Voluntary Exit, and the next candidate in the merit list is called.
  • Final Selection: Top-most candidates in the merit list (with successful CTC negotiation, for contractual posts) are finally selected.
