State Bank of India has announced the Preliminary Examination Result for its Junior Associates special recruitment drive for SC/ST/OBC backlog vacancies. The official Phase-I marks page is accessible and asks for a roll number or registration number and date of birth. Candidates should use the backlog recruitment link, not the separate regular Junior Associates recruitment entry.

SBI Clerk Backlog Prelims Result Available
State Bank of India has announced the Preliminary Examination Result for the Junior Associates special recruitment drive covering SC/ST/OBC backlog vacancies. Candidates who appeared for this recruitment can access the official Phase-I marks page and check the information available against their candidature.
The official result page identifies the recruitment as Advertisement No. CRPD/CR/SPLDRIVE/2026-27/16, dated August 7, 2026. It also confirms that the Preliminary Examination was held in September 2026. To access their marks, candidates need a roll number or registration number and date of birth.
As checked on October 19, SBI’s Careers page continues to display the backlog Preliminary Examination Result announcement, and the marks login page opens. This is confirmation of the existing result facility—not evidence of a newly declared result on October 19.sbi.bank+1
Use the Correct SBI Recruitment Link
SBI’s Current Openings page contains separate entries for regular Junior Associates recruitment and the special backlog drive. The regular recruitment entry currently mentions a Preliminary Examination call letter, while the backlog entry mentions the Preliminary Examination Result.
Candidates should therefore match the advertisement number before opening any result or call-letter link. For this article, the relevant recruitment is the SC/ST/OBC backlog special drive under CRPD/CR/SPLDRIVE/2026-27/16.
How to Check Your Prelims Marks
Open SBI’s official backlog result page and enter either your roll number or registration number. Then provide your date of birth and complete the CAPTCHA displayed on the page.
After accessing the result, read all information shown for your candidature. Save or print a copy if the facility is available. Do not substitute an unofficial result PDF or score predictor for the information displayed through SBI’s authenticated result facility.
Does Clearing Prelims Mean Final Selection?
No. The official recruitment advertisement provides for a Preliminary Examination followed by a Main Examination and a specified local-language test where applicable. Preliminary marks are not added for final selection; the final merit calculation uses Main Examination marks, subject to the advertisement’s conditions.
Candidates who qualify should follow the next-stage instructions issued by SBI. Prelims qualification alone should not be described as appointment or final selection.
Local-Language Test Exemption
The advertisement provides an exemption from the specified local-language test for candidates who produce a Class 10 or Class 12 marksheet/certificate showing that they studied the relevant language. Candidates who do not meet that exemption must satisfy the applicable language-test requirement.
Check the language specified for the state or circle concerned rather than assuming that knowledge of any Indian language is sufficient.
Keep Your Examination Documents Safe
SBI’s advertisement instructs candidates progressing to Mains to retain their authenticated/stamped Preliminary Examination call letter and authenticated copy of the identity proof. These are required with the Main Examination call letter and other prescribed documents at the next examination stage.
Follow the latest call-letter instructions for the complete document checklist.
Mains Date and Cut-Off: Verification Position
The official pages checked on October 19 confirmed the Prelims result and marks facility but did not provide an accessible dated Mains schedule in the retrieved content. Therefore, this article does not promote a Mains date as newly verified.
Similarly, no candidate-specific marks or numerical state/category cut-off was accessed. Candidates should check the information displayed in their own result and any separate official notice.
