Dates are taken from the detailed CEN 04/2026 (13 August 2026), Corrigendum-1 (18 August 2026) and the CBT 1 schedule notices on the official RRB websites. CBT 2, results and DV dates have not been announced yet, and CBT dates can shift for administrative reasons — the e-call letter is the final word on your date, shift and centre. Always confirm on the official RRB portals.
Expected dates can move, and the exam body announces changes only on its own website (rrbapply.gov.in). Add reminders for the confirmed dates and look at the official site again a few days before each one. For the 2026 cycle summary, see the RRB JE guide.
