The PFRDA Grade A Result 2026 is out, and for the candidates who sat the screening test in October, the wait is finally over. The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority has published the Phase I result for its Officer Grade A (Assistant Manager) recruitment under Advertisement No. 03/2026, and the roll numbers of those through to the next round are now in the merit list on pfrda.org.in.
This is a small, sharply contested recruitment — just 30 Assistant Manager seats across four streams — so clearing Phase I is a real milestone rather than a formality. If your roll number is on the list, the clock now starts for Phase II, which is scheduled for 20-11-2026.
