Railway RRB Group D Exam City Details CEN 09/2025

Railway RRB Group D Exam City Details CEN 09/2025 is a certificate verification schedule covered on this page. The key figures are an application window closing 09 March 2026 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 31 January 2026 and close on 09 March 2026, giving candidates 38 days to complete the process. The 38-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 11/03/2026 — 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 (12-21 March 2026), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 03-21 August 2026; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The age limit runs from 18 to 33 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 15-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: Class 10th / Matric (High School) from Any Recognized Board in India. OR ITI Certificate. 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 UPI. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

For this level of recruitment the written stage is a filter and the physical test is the real eliminator. Train for the PET events named in the notification in parallel with written preparation rather than after the result.
