The Railway Recruitment Board has begun issuing the RRB NTPC CBT-1 Admit Card 2026 for Graduate Level posts in a phased manner under CEN No. 06/2025. The City Intimation Slip was officially activated on 7 March 2026 across all regional RRB websites, and candidates can now check their allotted exam city, date, and shift timing by logging in through their respective regional portals.
The actual hall ticket, which is the E-Call Letter, is released. For candidates appearing on 16 March 2026, the admit card link has been activated on 12 March 2026. Candidates scheduled on later dates within the 16 to 27 March 2026 window will receive their hall ticket on a rolling basis, exactly 4 days before their specific exam date.
It is important to note that the City Intimation Slip and the Admit Card are two separate documents. The city slip only informs you about the exam city and date but does not permit entry to the examination hall. Carrying the printed E-Call Letter along with the original Aadhaar Card is compulsory without exception at every exam center.
