Through an RTI reply, the State Bank of India has clearly stated that no normalisation will be applied in the examination. This clarification has put an end to widespread confusion among aspirants regarding score calculation and fairness of evaluation.

RTI Confirms SBI Clerk Mains 2025 Held In Single Shift

As per the RTI reply issued by SBI, the SBI Clerk Mains 2025 Exam was conducted in only a single shift. Since normalisation is applied only when an exam is held in multiple shifts, the bank has confirmed that there is no requirement for normalisation in this stage.

Note: Single Shift Exam = No Normalisation

What Does The RTI Reply Say?

According to the RTI response:

• The SBI Clerk Mains Exam 2025 was conducted in a single shift.
• Hence, no score normalisation is applicable.
• Recruitment is currently under process.
• Certain information related to final outcomes will be shared after completion of the recruitment process.
• Information related to future events is not covered under Section 2(f) of the RTI Act, 2005.

• No scaling.
• No adjustment of marks.
• Final merit will be based on actual marks scored.
