The Railway Recruitment Board releases the official RRB ALP Cut Off 2026 alongside the CBT 2 results on all regional websites. Candidates can review these zone-wise and category-wise qualifying marks to determine their selection status for each specific railway region.

RRB ALP Cut Off 2026

Cut-off marks are published individually for each RRB zone and category—including UR, EWS, OBC, SC, ST, and Ex-Servicemen. To progress to CBT 2, candidates must meet or exceed the specified cut-off for their chosen region. Final scores are influenced by vacancy volume, participant numbers, and mandatory normalisation procedures. The minimum qualifying threshold is set at 40% for UR/EWS and 30% for OBC/SC/ST candidates before normalisation is applied.

RRB ALP CBT 2 Cut Off 2026

The examination board announces the CBT 2 cut-off marks upon the declaration of final stage results.

Candidates are shortlisted for the CBAT based primarily on their Part A performance in CBT 2, provided they successfully pass Part B, which serves as a mandatory qualifying section.
