The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has officially released the RRB Group D Answer Key 2026 (CEN 08/2024) following the conclusion of the Computer Based Test (CBT) for Level 1 posts conducted from 27 November 2025 to 10 February 2026. This step lets candidates who appeared in the exam verify their answers, calculate their probable scores, and raise objections if needed before the final results are declared.
How to Download the RRB Group D Answer Key 2026
The provisional answer key and individual response sheets are now available on official RRB platforms, including the main RRB portal and the rrb.digialm.com portal:
- Visit your regional RRB official website (such as rrbcdg.gov.in) or go to https://rrb.digialm.com.
- Look for the link titled “RRB Group D Answer Key / Response Sheet / Question Paper 2026.”
- Log in using your Registration Number and Date of Birth/Password.
- Once logged in, you will see the provisional answer key, your marked responses, and the correct answers.
- Download and save the answer key, question paper, and response sheet for score estimation.
The answer key PDF allows examinees to cross check their attempted answers with the official responses, giving a clear picture of their performance in the CBT phase.
Raise Objections If Needed
Candidates who find discrepancies in the provisional answer key can submit objections online. The objection window is open until 23 February 2026, and a nominal fee is applicable per question challenged. If an objection is accepted, this fee is refunded. After the objection period closes, the RRB will review all challenges and publish the final answer key ahead of the result announcement.
Why the RRB Group D Answer Key Matters
The Answer Key is a crucial document for candidates because:
- It allows self evaluation of performance based on official correct answers.
- It helps in estimating probable scores before results are declared.
- It provides transparency in the evaluation process.
- It forms the basis for any objections before the publication of the final answer key.
What’s Next After the Answer Key
Once objections are reviewed and the final answer key is released, RRB will proceed to compile and announce the RRB Group D Result 2026, likely in March or April 2026. Candidates who qualify based on their CBT scores will be called for subsequent stages of the recruitment process, including the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and document verification.
