Source: the 54-page CEN No. 06/2026 PDF supplied by the site owner, reviewed on 8 October 2026. The official RRB Chandigarh site lists a CEN 06/2026 Notification dated 7 October 2026; the matching hosted PDF, later corrigenda and live application status were not independently retrieved. The dates and rules below describe the supplied PDF and should be checked against any later official notice.
Application and correction calendar
Application submission and fee payment have separate deadlines. A submitted application must complete the required payment; the fee deadline does not reopen application submission.
The PDF prints the closing times without an explicit time-zone label. Check the portal’s displayed time zone before making a conversion. No closing clock time is added here to the modification window because the cited summary gives dates only.

| Stage or release | What the notice says | What to check next |
|---|---|---|
| CBT 1 | No examination date specified | A dated official CEN 06/2026 scheduling notice |
| CBT 2 | No examination date specified | The applicable stage-specific official notice |
| Exam city and date information | Relative guidance of about 10 days before the exam | The actual release notice and individual candidate information |
| E-call letter | Relative guidance of about 4 days before the exam | The official download availability and candidate-specific call letter |
| Document verification / medical | Dates to be communicated | Shortlisting and instructions for the relevant stage |

A relative release rule is not an announced date
“About 10 days before the examination” does not supply a calendar date when the examination itself has not been scheduled. Similarly, the call-letter guidance is not proof that the download is currently open.
When an official exam date is published, record the source notice and date first. Keep expected intervals labelled as guidance until an actual release or candidate-specific notice is available. Do not generate a countdown from a guessed month.
Recruitment notice year and examination year can differ. The 2026 CEN number alone does not establish that the CBT will take place in 2026.

How to check a schedule update
Confirm each update
- The notice identifies CEN 06/2026 and Graduate NTPC, rather than CEN 06/2025 or Undergraduate NTPC.
- It is available from an official RRB channel and its issue date is visible.
- It applies to the stage, RRB/candidate group and shift being described.
- Any postponement or revision is retained in the change log, with the superseded date clearly marked.
- Candidate-specific exam city, reporting time and gate closing time come from the applicable official candidate information; they are not inferred from another candidate’s schedule.
Source and amendment record

What to do while examination dates are pending
Complete application and payment checks within the stated windows and keep the confirmation records. Use the current syllabus and both CBT patterns for preparation. Recheck the official CEN identity when a schedule notice appears.
When exam city information or call letters become available, use the official candidate portal to check your own details. Your allotted city, date and reporting instructions may be specific to you.
