RRB Group D Exam City / Admit Card 2026 Out

RRB Group D Exam City / Admit Card 2026 – Schedule Modified and Here’s How It’s Going to Be Different

The schedule for RRB Group D Exam City Admit Card 2026 is really going to be different from the original schedule announced by the board. This revision of the CEN 09/2025 CBT schedule for RRB Group D Exam 2026 is official through a notice issued on 3 July 2026, and now the examination will be held over 16 days in August instead of one continuous schedule. Admit cards for those appearing in the exam on 3, 4, 5 and 6 August are already downloadable with the other admit cards coming online about four days before the respective dates.

Quick Overview

The Revised Schedule — 16 Specific Dates, Not a Continuous Range

This is the detail worth getting exactly right, since it changed from earlier reporting. The CBT now runs on:

3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 25 August 2026

Notice that 25 August sits outside what earlier coverage described as a straightforward "3–21 August" window — it's a later, separate addition to the schedule. If you saw an older article listing only "3rd to 21st August," that's now outdated; check your specific City Intimation Slip for your actual assigned date rather than assuming based on a general date range.

City Intimation Slip vs. Admit Card — Both Matter Here

RRB releases these as two separate documents, on two different timelines:

1. Exam City Intimation Slip: Released around 10 days before your specific exam date, telling you which city you're assigned to. This also includes the Travel Authority download option for SC/ST candidates.
2. Admit Card (Hall Ticket): Released approximately 4 days before your specific exam date, with your exact centre, shift, and reporting time.
3. Both are tied to your individual exam date, not a single blanket release for everyone. If you're scheduled for a later date in the 16-day spread, don't worry that your card isn't out yet just because someone with an earlier date already has theirs — check back closer to your specific date.

**➡️ Download your RRB Group D Exam City slip and Admit Card as each becomes available for your specific date — don't wait for a single blanket release, since RRB is issuing both in phases.

How to Download Your Admit Card

1. Visit the official portal at rrb.digialm.com or rrb.indianrailways.gov.in, or your specific regional RRB's website.
2. Look for the link titled "RRB Group-D CBT-I Admit Card 2026 (CEN 09/2025)."
3. Select your region if prompted (e.g., RRB Ahmedabad, RRB Patna, RRB Chennai).
4. Enter your Registration Number and Date of Birth, or your password.
5. Complete the captcha/security check if prompted.
6. Your admit card will display — check your exam date, shift, reporting time, and exam centre address carefully.
7. Download and print at least two copies.

If you've forgotten your registration number or password, use the "Forgot Registration Number" or "Forgot Password" option on the login portal rather than trying to create a new profile.

Documents to Carry on Exam Day

1. Printed admit card (color, at least 2 copies)
2. Original valid photo ID (Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, Passport, Voter ID, or Driving License)
3. Passport-size photographs, if specifically required per your admit card's instructions
4. Travel Authority document, if you're an SC/ST candidate who downloaded one alongside your city slip

Exam Details Worth Knowing

CBT is a marks-based examination with negative marking for wrong answers; you get 100 total marks. The exam has been scheduled to conduct at more than 200+ centers in 3 shifts across 21 railway zones like RRB Ahmedabad, RRB Bangalore, RRB Chennai, RRB Kolkata, RRB Mumbai, RRB Patna, etc. With 108825 posts and 87 lakh registered candidates, you can imagine the crowd at railway examination centers. It is better to reach well before the reporting time mentioned in the hall ticket.

What If You Face a Login or Discrepancy Issue?

In such cases, in case you face an issue while logging in or there is a discrepancy in the details displayed when you download the admit card, it is advised that you should contact the conducting body through the helpline number provided on their website rather than waiting until the last moment for exam days.

The RRB group D exam city admit card 2026 release has a revised pattern as compared to the previously declared schedule. Instead of a one-time release of the admit cards with a particular range of exam dates, there are 16 specific exam dates and cards are being released on a daily basis. So if your exam is scheduled to be held later in the schedule, be patient as your card will be released four days prior to your exam. However, it is important you confirm the exact exam date from your city intimation slip and not the tentative exam range as mentioned in the initial schedule and ensure you have all your documents including photo ID proof, printed admit card and travel authority (if any) ready in advance.
