IBPS PO cutoffs
These are official cutoffs as reproduced from IBPS result notices by the sources listed on each entry — decimals may differ by ±0.25 between reproductions; the IBPS PDF on ibps.in is always canonical. IBPS PO has no state-wise cutoffs — merit is all-India. Three different scales are involved, so read the maxMarks on each row: Prelims out of 100 (qualifying only, with sectional minimums plus a category-wise shortlist), Mains out of 225 (200 objective + 25 descriptive; sectional minimums plus a total needed to reach the interview), and the final combined score out of 100 built as 80% Mains + 20% Interview. The prelims marking itself changed recently (Reasoning 40, Quant 30, English 30 of the 100 marks), so raw year-on-year comparisons of prelims scores are only indicative. Cut-offs move with vacancies (3,049 in 2023 → 7,565 in 2026), shift difficulty after normalisation, and the size of the serious-candidate pool — treat them as a target band, not a promise.

Maximum marks in these lists: 100. Marking schemes can change between cycles, so read the trend as a band, not a promise.
