The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) conducts the RBI Grade B examination at multiple exam centres across India. Candidates appearing for the RBI Grade B Exam 2026 must be aware of the state-wise RBI Grade B Exam Centre List before applying for it. RBI allots exam centres separately for Phase 1 and Phase 2 exams. While Phase 1 is conducted in a larger number of cities, Phase 2 is usually held at limited exam centres across India. Read here for more details.
RBI Grade B Exam Centre 2026 List
The RBI Grade B 2026 exam for General, DEPR, and DSIM posts will be conducted at the centres designated by the Reserve Bank of India. While filling out the application form, candidates can choose one preferred city each for the Prelims and Mains exams. The final exam centre is allotted based on the candidate’s preferences and the availability of seats at the centre.
RBI Grade B Exam Centre List for Prelims and Mains
The RBI allocates exam centres based on candidates’ preferences and the availability of seats. Centres are assigned on a first-apply, first-allot basis, meaning popular locations may fill up quickly and may no longer be available. Once a centre is allotted, it generally cannot be changed. Candidates can choose their preferred cities separately for Prelims and Mains. Therefore, it is recommended to submit your application early to increase your chances of securing your preferred exam city
