The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has released the provisional answer key, along with questions and candidate responses, for the NTPC Undergraduate-level Computer-Based Test (CBT 1). The examination was conducted under CEN 07/2025, and candidates who appeared for the test can now access their response sheets and answer keys through the official zonal RRB websites as well as the common portal at rrb.indianrailways.gov.in.
The RRB NTPC Undergraduate CBT 1 examination was held in multiple phases between May 7 and May 9, 2026, and again from June 13 to June 20, 2026. With the release of the answer key on Saturday, candidates have been given the opportunity to evaluate their performance and compare their responses with the officially released answers.
Along with the answer key, the Railway Recruitment Board has also opened an objection window for candidates who wish to challenge any discrepancies. The challenge process began on June 27, 2026, at 7 pm and will remain open until July 5, 2026, at 11:55 pm. Candidates must submit objections within this timeframe to be considered for review by the board.

To raise an objection, candidates are required to pay a fee of ₹50 per question challenged. According to the official guidelines, if an objection is found to be valid after evaluation, the fee will be refunded to the candidate after deducting applicable bank charges. The refund will be processed to the same account used for the online payment.
The Railway Board has clarified that the decision taken on all objections will be final and binding on candidates. This stage is an important step in the recruitment process, as candidates who qualify in CBT 1 will move forward to the next phases of selection under CEN 07/2025. Candidates have been advised to carefully review their response sheets and submit any objections well before the deadline to avoid last-minute technical issues.
