RBI Grade B Exam Centre List for Prelims (General Post)

The RBI assigns exam centres based on applicant preference and seat capacity. Because centres are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis, popular test cities may reach capacity quickly. Once a centre is assigned, the RBI does not permit changes. Candidates may select different cities for Prelims and Mains; therefore, we strongly recommend completing your registration early to ensure you secure your most convenient exam location.
