Why the Delay in Exam Analysis?
Dear Aspirants,
We understand your eagerness for the exam analysis, The disruption caused by Cyclone Fengal in Puducherry, where our office located, has impacted our ability to publish the analysis as scheduled.

Note: There may be slight differences in question clarity between Shift 1 and Shift 2, as we could not collect the exact questions from Shift 1. To ensure accuracy, we kindly request our aspirants to share questions that asked in their exams to [email protected]

  • Your contributions will help us provide more precise and comprehensive analysis for everyone. We deeply appreciate your support and collaboration!

Take Away:
1) Most of the questions are from In-depth Static Banking awareness and statement based
