How the Railway Group D Examination is Conducted

The official Sarkari Result 2026 website is providing complete updates regarding the Railway Recruitment Board Railway Group D Exam 2026 and its selection process. The Railway Recruitment Board conducts the Group D examination in multiple stages for recruitment to various Level-1 posts in Indian Railways including Helper, Assistant Pointsman, Track Maintainer and other vacancies.

The Railway Group D Exam is first conducted through a Computer Based Test (CBT) at different examination centres across India. This online examination is the most important stage of the selection process as candidates are shortlisted for further rounds based on their performance in the CBT.

According to the exam pattern, the CBT consists of 100 multiple-choice questions carrying a total of 100 marks. Candidates are given 90 minutes to complete the examination, while PwBD candidates using a scribe receive 120 minutes. The exam also includes negative marking, with 1/3 mark deducted for every wrong answer.

The question paper is divided into four sections including General Science, Mathematics, General Intelligence & Reasoning, and General Awareness & Current Affairs. General Science and Mathematics carry 25 questions each, General Intelligence & Reasoning contains 30 questions, while General Awareness & Current Affairs includes 20 questions.

Candidates who qualify in the CBT are called for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET), which is qualifying in nature. After clearing PET, candidates have to appear for Document Verification and Medical Examination. The final selection and merit list are mainly prepared on the basis of CBT marks for candidates who successfully qualify all other stages of the recruitment process.
