Who Should Complete the Aadhaar Consent Step?
The official portal is specifically titled for the Common Recruitment Process for Probationary Officers / Management Trainees in Participating Banks (CRP PO/MT-XVI) and provides a login for already registered candidates. Therefore, candidates belonging to this recruitment cycle should check the portal and complete the requested Aadhaar consent/number-capture action applicable to their registration.
How to Submit IBPS PO Aadhaar Consent/Number
- Open the official IBPS CRP PO/MT-XVI Aadhaar consent page from the authorised IBPS website.
- Use the login section for already registered candidates.
- Enter the requested registration credentials exactly as used for your IBPS PO application.
- Read the consent language carefully before proceeding.
- Enter/confirm the Aadhaar-related information requested by the official portal.
- Review the details before final submission.
- Submit the form and preserve any confirmation/acknowledgement generated on screen.

What Should Candidates Keep Ready?
Keep your IBPS PO/MT-XVI registration number and the login credential required by the official portal ready.
Use only your own Aadhaar information and check the number carefully before submission.
Avoid rushed submission on an unstable connection, particularly close to the closing time.
Aadhaar Privacy and Security: What Not to Do
- Do not submit Aadhaar or IBPS credentials on unofficial forms, messaging apps or third-party websites.
- Do not share OTPs, passwords or registration credentials with anyone claiming to complete the process for you.
- Verify the domain before entering personal data; the official recruitment portal is under the IBPS registration domain.
- Do not publish screenshots containing your Aadhaar number, registration number, date of birth or other personal information.
- If you encounter a technical issue, use official IBPS support/contact routes rather than social-media intermediaries.
IBPS PO Mains 2026: Official Status
The Aadhaar update arrives immediately before the PO/MT-XVI Main Examination. IBPS published the online Main Examination call-letter resource on 24 September 2026, and the official examination calendar places the Mains on 4 October 2026. Candidates should therefore treat administrative completion and final revision as parallel priorities.
For the broader recruitment structure, eligibility and notification background, read Exam Prepp’s IBPS PO Recruitment 2026 guide. This contextual internal link helps candidates separate the current Aadhaar action from the original recruitment process.
48–72 Hour Mains Action Plan
- Finish administrative tasks first: Aadhaar consent, call-letter printout, ID documents and exam-centre planning should not be left for the final night.
- Prioritise Banking & Financial Awareness: revise banking concepts, RBI/regulatory developments, digital/financial awareness and recent high-yield current affairs.
- Use timed practice: solve Mains-level reasoning and data-analysis sets under realistic section timing.
- Revise, do not overload: avoid starting large new chapters at this stage; consolidate high-frequency concepts and your error notebook.
- Prepare descriptive English: practise concise structured writing under a timer if applicable to your Mains pattern/instructions.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Confusing the Aadhaar-consent window with a fresh application window.
- Waiting until 2 October to open the portal for the first time.
- Using unofficial “direct links” without checking the IBPS domain.
- Entering details without reviewing them.
- Ignoring the Main Examination call-letter information handout.
- Spending excessive revision time on rumours instead of the official syllabus and verified instructions.
