The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) have declared the CBT-1 Result for Assistant Loco Pilot (ALP) Recruitment, CEN No. 01/2025, with multiple RRB zones publishing their shortlisted candidate lists and cut-off marks for CBT-2 starting around 12 June 2026. The recruitment, for a total of 10,970 posts, saw its First Stage CBT (CBT-1) conducted from 13 to 18 February 2026, with the final answer key released on 20 March 2026. Candidates who appeared can now check their zone-wise shortlisting status and category-wise cut-off marks through their respective RRB’s official website. This article covers the result status, zone-wise official links, key recruitment details, and what comes next.
Important Note: RRB ALP results are declared zone-wise, not on a single central page – each of the 21 RRBs publishes its own shortlisted candidate list and cut-off marks separately on its own official website. Only some zones (Ajmer, Malda, Bhopal, Patna, Secunderabad, Ranchi, Chennai, Ahmedabad, and others) have released results as of this update – check your specific RRB zone’s official website for your result, rather than assuming all zones have declared results simultaneously.
