PNB LBO Written Exam Qualifying Marks
For the PNB LBO online written examination, candidates were required to meet both an overall cut-off score and a minimum sectional cut-off. The sectional qualifying marks varied by category:
| Category | Minimum Marks Required Per Section |
|---|
| General / EWS | 40% |
| SC / ST / OBC / PwBD | 35% |
It is important to note that these sectional cut-off percentages are based on information from various exam preparation sources and align with typical IBPS recruitment patterns. Candidates should cross-verify these figures with their individual scorecards for precise details. Additionally, some reports suggest an interview qualifying score of 25 out of 50 for General category and 22.5 out of 50 for SC/ST candidates, though this is not officially confirmed by PNB.
Documents Required for Verification
Candidates who are provisionally selected will need to present several documents during the verification and joining process. Ensure you have the following ready:
- A printed copy of your PNB LBO Score Card 2026.
- The final result or provisional selection intimation letter.
- Valid photo identification such as Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, Passport, or Driving License.
- All educational qualification certificates and corresponding mark sheets.
- Proof of post-qualification banking experience, if applicable as per the LBO eligibility criteria.
- Relevant category certificate (SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwBD) issued by the competent authority.

Important Instructions for Candidates

- When logging in, use your registration number as it is a unique identifier, unlike names which can be duplicated.
- If you find any discrepancies in your personal details on the scorecard, report them immediately to PNB or IBPS for correction.
- Punjab National Bank has issued a strict warning against fraudulent activities. Candidates should not pay any money to individuals promising interview calls, selection, or appointment, as the bank does not charge fees for these processes.
- Retain your scorecard along with your final result document, as both are crucial for future document verification and joining formalities.
