About This Recruitment
State Bank of India has notified recruitment for 38 posts under CRPD/SCO/2026-27/11, 12 and 13. Applications are accepted online from 07 Aug 2026 to 27 Aug 2026. The prescribed qualification is A BE, B.Tech, MCA, ME, M.Tech or M.Sc., or an MBA or PGDM in the relevant specialisation; TOGAF certification for the architecture posts, and the age limit is 25 to 50 years before category relaxation is applied. The vacancies are spread across 10 distinct posts, and the category-wise split for each is set out in the vacancy table below.
Selection is made through Shortlisting, Interview and CTC negotiation, followed by the remaining stages set out below. Selected candidates are placed in the pay scale of ₹64,820 – ₹1,05,280 for the regular posts; up to ₹1.7 crore CTC a year for the contractual senior roles. The place of posting is Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, or anywhere in India at the bank's discretion.
The application fee is ₹750, non-refundable for General, EWS and OBC, and no fee is payable by SC, ST and PwBD. The entire process is completed online, from registration through to fee payment and the final printout of the confirmation page. Check the notification for whether a correction window is offered, because most fields cannot be amended once the form is submitted.
Read the official notification in full before you begin the form. Eligibility, fees and dates are revised through corrigenda more often than candidates expect, and an application submitted against the wrong criteria is rejected at document verification rather than at submission — by which point the cycle is over.
