| Where the lists are published | The provisionally qualified candidate lists for the Mains are published as separate PDFs on the Commission’s website. |
Documents you must upload with the Mains form
This stage is document-heavy, unlike the preliminary application, and the file size limit is strict.
| Upload requirement | What the notice specifies |
|---|---|
| Marksheets of every year | Year-wise marksheets must be uploaded as PDF files in the format given on the form. |
| Degrees and claim certificates | Degrees and all certificates relating to any claim made in the application must be attached. |

| Print after submitting | The submitted form-set should be printed and kept, since only one correction is possible afterwards. |
How the Mains fee is paid
Payment runs through the State Bank of India payment gateway rather than a direct card page, and there are three separate routes if one fails.
| Payment route | How it works |
|---|---|
| Reaching the payment page | After authentication the Applicant Dashboard appears. Click Check Latest Status against the applied post, then Proceed for fee Deposition. |
| Choosing a bank | The SBI MOPS portal opens, where you select the State Bank of India or any one of 55 other banks. |
| Card or net banking | Payment can be made through debit card, credit card or net banking of the bank you selected. |
| If that is unavailable | Print the SBI e-challan and pay in cash at a branch, or pay through mobile banking by UPI using Buddy. |
| Fee amount | Governed by Advertisement No. A-7/E-1/2025, which is the document that sets the fee for this recruitment. |
