Everything the notification does not explain — both notifications, all 5,236 posts
Two Centralised Employment Notifications are open right now and between them they carry 5,236 posts in Indian Railways. This 49-page playbook reads both of them for you: which notification you actually qualify for, which of the 21 Railway Recruitment Boards gives you the best odds, why Goods Train Manager is closed to you if you have had Lasik, and exactly how each of the two computer-based tests is built. Every date, fee, vacancy, pay level and medical standard is taken from the notifications themselves.

Most NTPC guides are written for people who already applied and have a year to prepare. That is not where you are. You are in the last week of an application window, holding a notification that runs to 54 pages. Chapters 1 to 7 of this book are written for this week specifically — they decide whether you are in the race at all. Chapters 8 to 19 are the preparation, and they start the day you submit.
CEN 06/2026 carries 3,548 graduate posts; CEN 07/2026 carries 1,688 undergraduate posts. Eight posts, four pay levels, all in one table.
The RRB-wise vacancy table and real cut-off marks from the previous cycle — last time the same post ranged from 60.48 to 84.16 out of 100 depending on the board.
Goods Train Manager is 77% of the graduate posts and needs 6/9 unaided vision. Lasik disqualifies you. One chapter, one refraction test, one year saved.
Four readers, one book
You hold a degree and the graduate window closes on 6 November. Chapters 1 to 5 walk the form field by field and name the fourteen ways it gets rejected.
CEN 07/2026 gives you 1,688 posts at Level 2 and 3, and this year the typing test is gone. The 50% aggregate rule and its four exemptions are decoded.
Four medical standards decide which posts you can even be appointed to. Chapter 7 tells you which one you can pass before you spend the fee.
Chapter 3 shows why the board you pick matters more than the month you study, and Chapter 8 shows the negative-marking arithmetic behind an attempt strategy.
19 chapters and 3 appendices, in four parts
Where each figure comes from
Vacancies, pay levels, medical standards, age bands, fees, refund mechanics, exam pattern, qualifying marks, shortlisting ratios and document requirements — CEN 06/2026 and CEN 07/2026.
Every cut-off mark quoted comes from the CBT-1 cut-off notices individual RRBs published on 19 September 2025 for CEN 05/2024, and on 11 June 2026 for CEN 06/2025.
Where a passage is the author's reading of how the system behaves rather than a rule printed in the notification, the book says so in the sentence. The two are never mixed.

Everything you need to know before buying
Both. CEN 06/2026 (3,548 graduate posts) and CEN 07/2026 (1,688 undergraduate posts) are covered side by side, with a chapter on how to choose between them and every post, pay level and medical standard laid out in one table.
No. Chapters 1 to 7 are written for exactly this week — the deadline card, the field-by-field application walkthrough, the fourteen rejection traps, the RRB choice and the medical filter. You can read those seven chapters in about an hour, and they are the ones that decide whether you are in the race.
Every date, fee, vacancy count, pay figure, age limit, medical standard and exam-pattern number comes from CEN 06/2026 and CEN 07/2026 themselves, from the Railway Recruitment Boards' unified portal, or from the Press Information Bureau release of 11 October 2026. Cut-off figures come from individual RRBs' own published notices. Where a figure is from a previous cycle, the book says so in the sentence.
No, and neither does anyone else honestly — the CBT dates have not been announced yet. The book says so plainly and builds a twelve-week plan that has you ready before any plausible date, so an announcement cannot catch you short.
