Like mentioned multiple times before, you should aim to be prepared with RBI DEPR or IES syllabus and exam pattern. Absolutely thoroughly.
When the notification for any other exam is released, you should prepare a few topics specified in the notification that are new for you.
On the basis of this preparation, go and appear for this exam.
Otherwise, If you begin preparation only after the notification is released, it becomes difficult to complete preparation and practice, thoroughly before the exam !

1. See how rank changes with decimal points. That tells you how each mark matters in this exam for selection. That’s how close the game is ! That’s why, care for each mark. Sometimes, we forget that every run matters, till we end-up losing the match with just one run !
2. Hats off to Candidate no. 16 who got into the final list, with just 5 marks in the Interview. That’s like saying to the panel: ‘Apne interview marks aap apne pas rakhiye. Selection main apne dum par le lunga / lungi’ 💪🏽

In the Indian Economy folder,
the pdf on taxation contains data points : related to direct taxes, indirect taxes , tax-GDP ratio and related dimensions.
If you are unable to remember them in one reading, don't worry. Just be regular with revision.
Once you have done 5-6 rounds of revision, you will be able to retain the data.
Hence, focus on revisions.
And while choosing which data points to remember, think of your story first. As in, to answer the expected question, what will be the structure of your answer. And for this, decide what all data points can come handy
We will upload a brief video discussing this pdf. But till then, try to do one reading. This will help you understand the video more quickly !

If you are a serious aspirant, you should look to prepare all subjects thoroughly. Otherwise, you are leaving too much to your luck !
Statistics , Econometrics and Indian Economy are very important even from Interview's perspective. In RBI DEPR Interview, it is common to get very low marks if Interviewers feel your understanding in these subjects is not up to the mark.

RBI DEPR and IES are the only 2 regular exams (for economics specialist) having a decent number of vacancies.
Other exams (PFRDA-Research, EXIM Bank, SEBI-Research, etc.) are not held every year. Plus, they have lower vacancies. Hence, a candidate can't sit and prepare exclusively for them.
A serious candidate should pick the syllabus of either RBI DEPR or IES ; and prepare all those topics thoroughly.
If you have prepared these topics once, you can go and appear for any exams based on this preparation (with minor tweak in approach for other exams) as and when other notifications are released.
P.S. : In 2025, we might see notification of a few other such exams also. Hence, keep your preparation going

No vacancy under 'Research' stream but MA Economics degree is eligible for "Corporate Strategy, Partnership and Ecosystem Development" stream
Now, some of you will think that 'how will we handle professional knowledge on this subject worth 60 marks' , while a few others will think 'Perhaps the number of applications will be low. Let me fill the form now and if it does not coincide / fall very close to any other exam, I will go and try to answer sensibly. If it clicks, good enough. Otherwise also, its okay. Ultimately, not many candidates may prepare extensively for it specifically.'
Accordingly, you take your decision on whether to apply for this stream or not
Application Deadline : 19 May 2025

Economist Vacancy has been added under NabFid Analyst Recruitment.
Any Candidate desirous of cracking RBI DEPR should apply for all IBPS Economics stream exam
Economist Vacancy has been added under NabFid Analyst Recruitment.
Any Candidate desirous of cracking RBI DEPR should apply for all IBPS Economics stream exam
Received a few queries regarding whether to appear for NabFid exam or not.
Consider this :
- The girl who cleared Nabfid 2023 exam had appeared for RBI DEPR Interview that year (I think Nabfid exam was in December 2023, RBI DEPR Interviews were in January 2024)
- The girl who cleared Nabfid 2024 was later also selected in RBI DEPR 2024
Note, that Nabfid exam also has a 'General Aptitude' section. Even then, the people who were ultimately selected, were the one who had their concepts of primary subject in place.
Like mentioned before, all these exams are conducted by IBPS. Perhaps, the same person (Economics specialist in IBPS) may be making the Economics questions in all these exams.
These exams have more or less common syllabus. Prepare it once and based on it, appear for all these exams.
Hence, I usually tell all serious aspirants, go and appear for all exams, if you are interested in only one (RBI DEPR) of them. It serves like a 'Mock Test'.
I had cleared the first IBPS Exam I wrote in 2017. But still, when I had decided to mentor others for Economics specialists exam, I had started appearing for all Economics specialist exams since 2019... just to understand the pattern and kind of questions chosen by the IBPS. My interest was only to improve my content and mentorship for RBI DEPR Exam, based on these exams.
And if the Nabfid exam falls after IES Exam, then there is no reason of not going for Nabfid exam. Jitna bhi time mile, utna padh k jao and appear for the exam.
Ultimately, it's your call. Think through it and then decide.
