Understanding the Provisional Answer Key
The provisional answer key is released by IBPS after the examination is conducted. It contains the tentative correct answers to all questions. Candidates can use this to estimate their scores before the results are declared.
The provisional key is made available on the official IBPS website along with the question paper and response sheet.
Raising Objections
Candidates can raise objections against any answer in the provisional key by logging into the official IBPS portal. Each objection requires payment of a specified fee. The authority reviews all valid objections before releasing the final answer key.
Objections must be submitted within the timeframe specified by IBPS, typically within 3-5 days of the provisional key's release.
Final Answer Key
The final answer key is released after considering all objections raised by candidates. It contains the definitive correct answers that will be used for evaluation. The final answer key is binding and cannot be challenged further.
The final answer key is published on the official IBPS website and is used for calculating the final scores of candidates.
