The RRB Group D 2025 exams have concluded, and candidates from the Kolkata Zone are now eagerly waiting for the results and cut-off marks. Based on recent exam trends, student feedback, and historical data, here is a detailed breakdown of what you can expect.

RRB Group D Kolkata Zone Cut Off 2025-26


​Kolkata Zone Vacancy vs. Competition

​This year, the competition in the Kolkata zone remains significant. While the total vacancies across all zones are over 32,000, Kolkata has a specific distribution that impacts the cut-off:

  • ​Total Vacancies (Kolkata): 10,817
  • ​Total Applications: ~7.93 Lakh
  • ​Attendance: Reports suggest that student attendance was below 50%, which might slightly lower the expected cut-off compared to previous years.

​Previous Year vs. Expected Cut-off

​In the last recruitment cycle, the final cut-off for the Kolkata zone was relatively high. For example, the UR category jumped from a PET score of 69.6 to a final selection score of 75.

​However, considering the current difficulty level of the shifts and the lower attendance, the "Safe Score" for this year is predicted to be slightly more relaxed.

​Expected Safe Score (Category-wise)

​If your raw marks (after normalization) fall within these ranges, you should start preparing for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET):

Category

Expected Safe Score (2025-26)

Unreserved (UR)

68 – 71

OBC

64 – 67

EWS

62 – 65

SC

56 – 59

ST

49 – 53

Note: These are expected ranges. The actual cut-off may vary based on the normalization process and the final number of candidates who qualify for the PET.
