The allotment process is also an integral part of the IBPS selection process. After the provisional allotment by IBPS to the successful candidates, students have to wait for the DV round and joining date announcement by their allotted banks.

We can expect that the joining date for IBPS PO and IBPS Clerk will be announced at least after 2-3 months. But before we proceed with the information, let us know what is a provisional allotment?

What is a Provisional Allotment?

The final merit list is the combination of the marks scored in mains as well as interview round in the ratio 80:20 (only marks of mains exam are added for final selection in case of clerical exams).

This provisional allotment is given to those students only who successfully cleared all the phases of the recruitment process by IBPS. The candidature of those candidates can be canceled who fail to fulfill the eligibility criteria.

What is the official process after getting a Provisional Allotment?

After the result is declared, individual banks come into force as IBPS is only a medium to recruit these prominent candidates. Bank sends an offer letter on the registered email id of the candidate with the list of the formalities and documents to be produced at the time of DV. Some banks may publish this information on their official site as well.

This mail generally contains the information regarding the medical tests that are required to be completed by the individual, Documents, and other certificated that must be carried at the time of documentation, and other useful and confidential information.
