The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has released the exam city intimation slip 2026 for the Section Controller (CEN 04/2025) recruitment on its official and regional websites. The slip enables candidates to check their allotted exam city, exam date and shift details ahead of the Computer-Based Test (CBT) scheduled on 11 and 12 February 2026.
Officials said the advance information is intended to help candidates arrange travel and accommodation, especially where examination centres are located outside their home cities. The intimation, however, does not serve as an admit card and will not be accepted for entry into the examination hall.
Exam schedule and purpose of the city slip
According to notices published by multiple exam portals and based on RRB’s schedule:
Exam name: RRB Section Controller Exam 2026
Notification number: CEN 04/2025
Post: Section Controller
Total vacancies: 368
Mode of exam: Computer-Based Test (CBT)
Exam dates: 11 and 12 February 2026 (multiple shifts)
City intimation slip release: 3 February 2026
Admit card (e‑call letter) release: About 4 days before the exam (around 7–8 February 2026)
The city intimation slip conveys key logistics but does not include the exact centre address or roll number. Those details will be provided only in the admit card/e‑call letter, which remains mandatory for entry to the examination centre.
Direct link to download the city intimation slip
Candidates can access the RRB Section Controller city intimation slip via the official RRB portals. The city slip has been made available through the regional RRB websites and the central login page.
Primary access points include:
Central RRB portal:
https://www.rrbcdg.gov.in/ (Chandigarh and links to regional sites)
https://rrbapply.gov.in/ or https://rrb.digialm.com/ (candidate login for many regions)
Once on the relevant site, candidates must follow the link titled along the lines of:
“CEN 04/2025 – Section Controller Exam City Intimation Slip 2026”
The direct login-based link is active on regional RRB sites and the common CBT login platform. Candidates are advised to reach the link only via official RRB websites to avoid fraudulent pages.
How to download the RRB Section Controller city intimation slip 2026
RRB has enabled the city slip through the candidate login. The process is broadly common across regions:
Visit the official website
Open your regional RRB website (for example, rrbcdg.gov.in) or the common application/login portal (rrbapply.gov.in or rrb.digialm.com).
Locate the city slip link
On the homepage, check the “Notice Board”, “Latest Updates” or similar section.
Click on the notification/link reading:
“CEN No. 04/2025 – Section Controller Exam City Intimation” or “RRB Section Controller City Intimation Slip 2026”.
Log in to the candidate dashboard
Enter your Registration Number/Application Number.
Enter your Date of Birth or Password.
Type the captcha code shown on the screen.
Click “Login”/“Submit”.
View and download the slip
The RRB Section Controller Exam City Intimation Slip 2026 will appear on the screen.
Verify your name, registration number, exam city, exam date and shift.
Click “Download” or “Save as PDF” and store it on your device.
Take a printout for reference during travel planning.
If the page is slow or not loading, RRB-related sources advise candidates to try again during non‑peak hours and avoid using VPNs or ad‑blockers which may interfere with site loading.
What the exam city intimation slip contains
The city intimation slip is a pre-exam information document. It typically includes:
Candidate’s Name
Registration Number/Application ID
Date of Birth
Exam Name: RRB Section Controller CBT 2026
Exam City and State allotted
Tentative Exam Date (11 or 12 February 2026)
Shift detail (forenoon/afternoon)
Reporting time and, in some cases, gate closing time
General exam-day instructions
The exact examination centre address, roll number, candidate photograph and signature will not appear on the city slip. Those will be printed on the admit card/e‑call letter, expected 4 days prior to each candidate’s exam date.
City slip vs admit card: key differences
RRB has repeatedly clarified that the city intimation slip is not an admit card. The main distinctions are:
Aspect City Intimation Slip Admit Card / E‑Call Letter
Purpose Advance information to facilitate travel planning Mandatory entry document for CBT
Release time Around 7–10 days before exam 4 days before exam date
Contains exam city? Yes Yes
Contains exact centre address? No Yes
Contains roll number & photograph? Generally no Yes
Permits entry to exam hall? No Yes (with valid photo ID)
Candidates must therefore download both: first the city slip for planning, and later the admit card for appearing in the exam.
Shift timings and exam-day guidance
According to exam schedules circulated by preparation portals and consistent with RRB patterns, the Section Controller CBT will be conducted in two shifts per day in many regions:
Shift Reporting Time Gate Closing Time Exam Time Duration
Shift 1 Around 7:30 am Around 8:30 am 9:00 am 120 minutes
Shift 2 Around 11:30 am Around 12:30 pm 1:00 pm 120 minutes
Candidates are advised to:
Reach the exam city well in advance, especially if long-distance travel is involved.
Carry a valid photo ID (Aadhaar, where Aadhaar‑based biometric verification is mandated).
Read all instructions printed on the admit card carefully once released, including permissible items and reporting protocols.
What to do if the city slip is not visible
Some candidates may not immediately see their city intimation slip after the link goes live. In such cases, exam portals citing RRB sources suggest:
Checking again after a few hours or the next day, as city/centre allocation for a minority of candidates may still be under process.
Ensuring that the application status was accepted for CEN 04/2025.
Trying another browser, clearing cache, or switching between mobile data and Wi‑Fi.
Contacting the regional RRB helpdesk if the problem persists close to the exam date, quoting registration number and basic details.
Advisory to candidates
RRB advises aspirants to:
Rely only on official RRB websites and genuine regional portals for downloading city slips and admit cards.
Avoid unofficial links, social media forwards or paid intermediaries claiming to provide city slips or admit cards.
Keep registration credentials and a valid photo ID ready for verification.
With the exam city intimation slip now released, the next key milestone for registered candidates will be the issue of admit cards about four days before the CBT, ahead of the two-day examination window on 11 and 12 February 2026.
