PFRDA Grade A Phase II exam date and reporting details
Current examination coverage reports 20 November 2026 as the Phase II exam date. PFRDA’s public listing confirms that the Phase II call-letter link was issued on 12 November, but the accessible public page does not separately display a common exam date or shift. Candidates should therefore confirm the exact date, reporting time and venue printed on their individual call letter. Do not rely only on the date shown in a general news summary.
PFRDA Grade A Phase II exam pattern
PFRDA’s official Phase II information handout describes two papers:
| Paper | Type | Questions | Marks | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paper I | English descriptive writing skills | 3 | 100 | 60 minutes |
| Paper II | Stream-specific multiple-choice questions | 50 | 100 | 40 minutes |
| Total | Online examination | — | 200 | 100 minutes |
Paper I is in English and assesses descriptive writing. The handout’s sample areas include essay writing, précis writing and English comprehension. Paper II is bilingual in English and Hindi except for the English paper, with stream-specific content for General, Research, Actuarial and Official Language candidates. Candidates who qualified in two streams must appear for both relevant Paper II sections in the same sitting; the handout specifies a longer total examination duration for such candidates.
Negative marking: One-fourth of the marks assigned to a question are deducted for an incorrect answer in Paper II. Read the official handout for the complete stream-wise syllabus and instructions.
Documents to carry to the PFRDA Phase II exam centre
- A printed copy of the Phase II call letter.
- A recent passport-size photograph pasted on the call letter, preferably the same photograph used during registration.
- The original of a currently valid photo identity document.
- One photocopy of the same photo ID to submit as instructed at the centre.
The official handout lists acceptable photo IDs such as PAN card, passport, permanent driving licence, voter ID with photograph, Aadhaar/e-Aadhaar with photograph, employee ID and other specified photo identity documents. Ration cards and learner’s driving licences are not accepted as photo ID. The name on the call letter must match the name on the identity document.
Important exam-day instructions
- Check the centre address and reporting time on the call letter. PFRDA advises candidates to identify the centre in advance if needed.
- Reach the venue within the reporting window. Late entry may not be allowed.
- Do not carry mobile phones, books, notebooks, loose notes or personal calculators into the examination process.
- For streams that need a calculator, the relevant calculator is provided on screen during Paper II as described in the information handout.
- Follow the test administrator’s instructions. The handout also describes photograph and iris capture at the centre.
- Keep the call letter and photo-ID photocopy ready for the submission process at the end of the examination.
Who is eligible to download the Phase II call letter?
The Phase II online examination is for candidates shortlisted based on the Phase I result. The official information handout says only shortlisted candidates can take Phase II. If you appeared in Phase I but were not shortlisted, the call-letter link does not create eligibility to sit for the next stage.
