RRB NTPC CBT 1 Result 2026: What has been released?
The Railway Recruitment Boards have released the CBT 1 result for the NTPC Undergraduate recruitment under CEN 07/2025.The result is published through the respective regional RRB websites rather than as one simple national PDF.

The current recruitment covers 3,058 undergraduate vacancies. The official government recruitment schedule lists the CBT 1 examination dates as May 7–9 and June 13–20, 2026. (Press Information Bureau)

How to check the RRB NTPC CBT 1 Result 2026
You do not need to search random websites for your roll number. The safer route is to use the official RRB regional website associated with your application.
Follow these steps:
- Open your regional Railway Recruitment Board website.
- Go to the Results, Notices or CEN 07/2025 section.
- Find the notice for NTPC Undergraduate CBT 1 Result.
- Open the result PDF.
- Download or save the PDF on your phone.
- Use the PDF search option and enter your roll number.
- If your roll number appears in the shortlisted list, you have qualified for the next stage.
On mobile, the easiest method is usually to download the PDF first and then use the search icon in your PDF reader. This is much faster than manually scrolling through hundreds or thousands of roll numbers.
What does the RRB NTPC result PDF actually show?
This is where many candidates get confused.The result PDF is primarily a shortlisting document. It contains the roll numbers of candidates shortlisted for the next stage. It is not the same thing as your detailed individual scorecard.
So if you open the PDF and cannot find your exact marks, don’t assume that something is wrong.Think of the documents this way:
Result PDF: tells you whether your roll number has been shortlisted.
Cutoff PDF: tells you the relevant cutoff marks for the applicable region/category/post.
Scorecard: gives your individual examination performance and marks.
This distinction matters because candidates frequently search for their marks inside the result PDF and end up thinking their result is incomplete.
RRB NTPC UG CBT 1 cutoff 2026
The RRB NTPC UG CBT 1 cutoff 2026 has also been released with the result information. The cutoff is not necessarily one identical number for every candidate.It can vary according to the relevant RRB region, category and post/category of recruitment.
For example, current published cutoff data shows different marks across regions and categories. Jagran Josh has reported separate zone/category figures, while other result pages also provide region-wise cutoff information.
That is why candidates should not judge their result using a cutoff number copied from another RRB zone.
If your score is close to a cutoff found on social media, don’t use that number to decide whether you qualified. Check the official cutoff applicable to your RRB and category.
Why are there different RRB NTPC cutoff marks?
RRB NTPC recruitment is conducted across multiple RRB regions, and the selection process involves a large number of candidates.
The government has described the RRB recruitment system as a large-scale, multi-city and multi-shift process. The 2026 recruitment schedule also shows that NTPC UG CEN 07/2025 involves 3,058 vacancies. (Press Information Bureau)
Therefore, a cutoff figure from one region should not automatically be treated as the cutoff for another region.
RRB NTPC scorecard 2026: When can you check your marks?
The scorecard is different from the result PDF.
Current reports indicate that the individual RRB NTPC UG CBT 1 scorecard is scheduled to become available from August 26, 2026, at 5:00 PM. (tazajobalert.com)
Because this is an important login-related update, candidates should verify the availability directly on their regional RRB portal rather than relying only on screenshots or social-media posts.
You may need your registration details and other login information used by the RRB candidate portal.Once the scorecard is available, save a copy for your records.
RRB NTPC UG CBT 1 Result 2026 vs Graduate Result
This is one of the biggest sources of confusion in Google searches.
The Graduate and Undergraduate NTPC recruitments are not the same CEN.
The Graduate recruitment is under CEN 06/2025, with 5,810 notified vacancies. Its CBT 1 was conducted from March 16 to March 27, 2026, and the result was released in June. (Press Information Bureau)
The current Undergraduate recruitment is under CEN 07/2025, with 3,058 vacancies. Its CBT 1 was conducted in May and June, and the result was released on August 24, 2026.
So if you searched “RRB NTPC Graduate Result 2026”, you may be looking for a different recruitment from the one discussed in this current UG update.
What happens after the RRB NTPC UG CBT 1 result?
If your roll number appears in the shortlisted list, don’t stop at checking the result.
The next stage is CBT 2. The current government recruitment schedule lists September 17, 2026 as the tentative CBT 2 date for CEN 07/2025. (Press Information Bureau)
That means the useful question after seeing your name or roll number is not simply, “Did I pass?”
It is:
“What do I need to do before CBT 2?”
Start preparing immediately.
Keep your result PDF and scorecard saved. Follow the regional RRB website for the city-intimation notice and e-call letter. Do not rely on an unofficial Telegram or WhatsApp message for your final exam-day information.
A recent report on the CBT 2 schedule also states that the city/date information and travel authority are expected before the examination, while the e-call letter is to follow closer to the exam date. Candidates should still verify the latest notice issued by their own RRB.
What if your roll number is not in the result PDF?
First, check that you downloaded the correct PDF.
This sounds obvious, but it is an easy mistake when several RRB regions publish separate documents.
Confirm:
- Your recruitment is CEN 07/2025.
- You are checking the Undergraduate CBT 1 result.
- You are using the RRB region connected to your application.
- You searched the correct roll number.
- You have opened the latest result notice rather than an older NTPC PDF.
If all five checks are correct and your roll number is absent, the result PDF does not indicate that you have been shortlisted for CBT 2.
Do not use an unofficial “expected cutoff” to change that conclusion.
Why the official RRB website matters
Search results can become confusing immediately after a major government exam result.
One page may be discussing the Graduate result. Another may have an old Undergraduate recruitment. A third may show expected cutoff marks instead of the released cutoff.
The official regional RRB notice is the document that should settle the question.
RRB regional websites have published result, cutoff and scorecard notices for different CENs, including the NTPC Graduate and Undergraduate recruitments. (Railway Recruitment Board Bhubaneswar)

RRB NTPC CBT 1 Result 2026: Common mistakes to avoid
Don’t search only for “RRB NTPC result 2026” and click the first PDF you see.
Check the CEN number.
For the current UG result, it is CEN 07/2025. The Graduate result is CEN 06/2025.
Don’t confuse the result PDF with your scorecard.
Don’t compare your cutoff with a different RRB zone.
And don’t assume that a social-media screenshot is the final word on an exam date. RRB notices can change, and the government schedule itself marks some future dates as tentative. (Press Information Bureau)
