Railway RRB Section Controller Exam City Details 2026

This page tracks Railway RRB Section Controller Exam City Details 2026, a admit card release. The key figures are an application window closing 14 October 2025 and a fee of ₹500 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

Indian Railways recruits through Railway Recruitment Boards (RRB) and Railway Recruitment Cells (RRC). Railway selection normally runs one or more computer-based tests followed, depending on the post, by a physical efficiency test, document verification and a medical examination with post-specific vision standards.

Applications open on 15 September 2025 and close on 14 October 2025, giving candidates 30 days to complete the process. The 30-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it. Fee payment closes on 16/10/2025 — note that this can fall on a different day from the form deadline, and an unpaid form is not a submitted form. A correction window is listed (17-26 October 2025), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 11-12 February 2026; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The age limit runs from 20 to 33 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 13-year band, so candidates near either edge should confirm the exact cut-off date the notification measures age against — it is usually a fixed reference date, not the date you apply. On qualifications, the notification states: 368 Post — Bachelor Degree in Any Stream from Any Recognized University in India. More Eligibility Details Read the Notification. If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹250 and ₹500, depending on category. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, net banking, and offline bank challan. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

Check the admit card for the three things candidates most often get wrong: the reporting time (typically well before the exam time), the exact centre address, and the list of permitted items. Carry a printed copy plus the photo ID named on the card — a digital copy on a phone is not accepted at most centres.
