Yes. There is negative marking in IBPS Exam. Not only for IBPS Exam, but for almost all bank exams there is negative marking for wrong answers.

In most cases the negative marking will be of 0..25 or 25% in the sense for every 4 wrong answers which a candidate has committed in the bank exam, 1 mark from the actual marks scored by candidate will be deducted.

The selection procedure for bank clerk and PO jobs is by
-Written test
-Interview

The written test is of descriptive type and of objective type. One need to secure more than cut off marks in each of the categories of the written test to get through the written test.

IBPS Examination

Yes, my dear friend There is negative marking in IBPS Exam.

Penalty For Wrong Answers

There will be penalty for wrong answers marked in the Objective Tests. For each question for which a wrong answer has been given by the candidate one fourth or 0.25 of the marks assigned to that question will be deducted as penalty to arrive at corrected score.. If a question is left blank, i.e. no answer is given by the candidate, there will be no penalty for that question.

yes, 1/4 marks will be deduct on each incorrect question.

Yes there is also the negative marking for the all IBPS exams. The IBPS is conducting the clerk, PO, officers exams every year. If any candidate gives wrong answer then he/she will be punished for ¼ marks of the total one question mark. So while giving the answer it should be necessary to give the correct answer other you have to face the negative marking.
