RRB ALP Fee for Various Categories

All candidates applying for the recruitment exam must pay a mandatory examination fee. The amount varies based on the candidate's category. General category candidates are required to pay Rs. 500, whereas candidates from reserved categories such as SC, ST, Ex-Servicemen, Female, Transgender, Minorities, and Economically Backward Class (EBC) must pay Rs. 250. It's important to note that EBC is distinct from OBC and EWS categories. Candidates should ensure they select the correct category while applying to avoid rejection or complications during the refund process.

RRB ALP Refund of Examination Fee for CBT-1 Attendees

Candidates who appear for the 1st Stage CBT (Computer-Based Test) are eligible for a partial refund of their examination fee. Out of the total amount paid, Rs. 400 will be refunded to General category candidates and Rs. 250 to reserved category candidates, after deducting applicable bank charges. This refund is conditional and strictly applies only to those who attend CBT-1. Those who fail to appear for the examination will not be eligible for any refund.

To receive the refundable portion of the examination fee, candidates must accurately fill in their bank details during the application process. These details include the Bank Name, Name of Account Holder, Account Number, and IFSC Code. The onus of providing correct bank information lies solely with the applicant. The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) will not be responsible for any refund failures due to incorrect or incomplete bank details provided by the candidate.

No Refund for Wrong or Incomplete Applications

Candidates must submit complete and accurate applications. RRB will not issue any refund for the following cases:

• Incomplete or incorrectly filled application forms
• Rejected applications due to eligibility issues or document mismatch
• Errors in bank account details provided by the candidate

Once the application is rejected, the decision is final. Candidates can check the status and reason for rejection on the respective RRB website by logging into their account. They will also receive SMS and email notifications. However, no postal communication will be made regarding rejection or refund status.
