About Exim Bank

Export-Import Bank of India is described in the notification as an all-India premier financial institution engaged in financing, facilitating and promoting India’s international trade. The Deputy Manager and Manager posts under this drive work in banking operations and internal audit — areas that involve project finance, credit appraisal, term lending, cross-border risk analysis and financing of overseas joint ventures, as described in the eligibility criteria. Candidates exploring other Government Jobs openings in banking and finance can compare requirements before applying.

Local context / how it compares

This is added context, not part of the official notice. Confirm with the official website.

This drive is narrower than the large-scale IBPS-style bank recruitments that most candidates are familiar with. It is a Special Recruitment Drive limited to backlog vacancies reserved for SC, ST and OBC candidates, with only 8 posts spread across two grades, and it asks for specific post-qualification banking or audit experience rather than accepting freshers. That combination — a small, experience-linked, reserved-category drive — usually draws a smaller and more specialised applicant pool than a mass PSU bank hiring cycle.

Important dates

The notification states that the exact examination date will be advised through the call letter and will also be updated on the Bank’s website.

Vacancy details and salary

Pay scales follow the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) 12th Bipartite Settlement. Reservations follow prevailing Government of India guidelines, and the reservation marked for PwBD candidates is on a horizontal basis for Hearing Impairment (HI) disability. Candidates can apply for only one post; if a candidate registers for more than one, only the latest completed registration is retained and fees paid for the other registration(s) are forfeited.

Important links

The exact online application portal URL is not printed as plain text in the notification itself — the notification links it through an “Online Application” hyperlink. Candidates should use the official website, www.eximbankindia.in, to reach the application form; do not use any third-party or unofficial link.

Should you apply?

Exim Bank Recruitment 2026 drive suits experienced banking and finance professionals from SC, ST or OBC categories who already have relevant post-qualification experience — project finance and credit appraisal for Deputy Manager, internal or credit audit for Manager. It is not designed for freshers: both posts carry a minimum experience requirement, and the Manager post specifically needs 3 years in internal or credit audit work along with ICAI membership if applying through the CA route.

With only 8 posts across the two grades, competition will likely be limited to a smaller, experience-qualified pool rather than the lakhs of applicants typical of large PSU bank drives. The starting pay is strong for a banking role — around ₹18–20 lakh per annum depending on the grade — but candidates should weigh the trade-offs: an all-India posting liability, possible transfer outside India, and for Deputy Manager selectees, a 5-year service bond of ₹3 lakh from the date of joining.
