The Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) has declared the IBPS PO Result 2026 for the CRP PO/MT-XVI Preliminary Examination. The exam was held on 22 and 23 August 2026 for 7,565 Probationary Officer and Management Trainee vacancies across 11 participating banks, and the result was officially declared on 23 September 2026. Candidates who appeared for the exam can now check their result through the official IBPS portal.
Important Note: Two things to keep in mind. First, IBPS has revised the CRP PO/MT-XVI vacancy count twice since the original notification – from 6,715 to 7,365 on 20 July 2026, and further to 7,565 on 27 August 2026 – and since Union Bank of India has not yet reported its vacancies, the overall count may rise again. Second, this is only the Preliminary result; candidates who qualify must appear for the Main Examination, tentatively scheduled for 4 October 2026 – the Prelims score itself does not count toward final selection.
