No, the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) does not impose a limit on the number of attempts for the Common Recruitment Process (CRP) exams like IBPS PO or IBPS Clerk.

  • Key Rule: A candidate may appear for the IBPS examinations as many times as they wish, provided they meet the specified upper age limit criteria for their respective category (General/EWS, OBC, SC/ST, PwBD, etc.).
  • Exceptions/Context: Unlike some other government examinations (e.g., UPSC Civil Services), the IBPS CRP system solely uses the upper age limit and educational qualification as the restricting criteria for eligibility, not a fixed count of attempts.
  • Clarification: Candidates must ensure they fulfill all other stipulated eligibility conditions, including educational qualification and computer literacy (where applicable), for every attempt.
