SBI Clerk Mains 2025 Result: Candidates Await Final Merit List as Release Nears

New Delhi, December 29, 2025: The State Bank of India (SBI) is expected to announce the results for the Clerk (Junior Associate) Mains Exam 2025 shortly. With the examination having been conducted on November 21, 2025, thousands of aspirants across the country are now waiting for the final merit list that will determine their entry into India’s largest public sector bank.

Anticipated Result Timeline

According to historical trends and recent updates, SBI typically releases the Mains result within 4 to 6 weeks of the exam date. For the 2025 cycle, the result is projected to go live in late December 2025 or the first week of January 2026.

The result will be published in a PDF format containing the roll numbers of provisionally selected candidates. This list will be followed by the release of individual scorecards and state-wise cut-off marks a few days later.

Expected Cut-off Trend

The SBI Clerk Mains cut-off is determined by the difficulty level of the paper, the number of vacancies in a specific state, and the overall performance of the candidates.

Based on initial student feedback from the November 21 exam:

• High Competition States: (Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Kerala) – Cut-offs are expected to range between 85–94.
• Moderate Competition States: (Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, West Bengal) – Cut-offs are likely to hover around 76–85.
• Low Competition States: (Karnataka, Gujarat, North-Eastern states) – Cut-offs may drop to the 68–77 range.

Note: SBI does not apply sectional cut-offs for the Mains exam; qualification depends solely on the total aggregate score out of 200 marks.

Next Steps: The Language Proficiency Test (LPT)

Candidates who find their roll numbers in the merit list will proceed to the final stage: the Language Proficiency Test (LPT).

• Purpose: To ensure candidates can read, write, and speak the local language of the state they applied for.
• Exemption: If you have studied the official local language in the 10th or 12th standard and have it mentioned on your mark sheet, you may be exempted from this test.
• Nature: The LPT is qualifying in nature, meaning its marks aren’t added to the final score, but failing it will lead to disqualification.
