PM Modi in his man-ki-baat programme that aired few months before announced .that from January 1, 2016 there would be no interviews for central government jobs in Class-III and IV categories. He had termed it as a "New Year Gift" to the youth and a major step to curb corruption.Following this order public sector banks are now circulating orders regarding discontinuing of interview for clerical posts.All this points to the discontinuation of interview round for IBPS clerk.However IBPS has not issued any official notification regarding discontinuation of clerical post interview.

Here is an abstract of an article that has appeared in economictimes.

Finance Ministry has asked Public Sector Banks (PSBs) to strengthen written examination for recruitment of clerical and sub-staff posts as there will be no interviews for such appointments.
"PSBs may explore other alternatives to strengthen written examination such as by including psychometric tests, etc. to replace interview mechanism," the Department of Financial Services said in a communication to Chief Executives of all the 27 state-owned banks.
The PSBs were asked to take "necessary action" to discontinue interviews in the recruitment process for the clerical and sub-staff posts by December 31, 2015. The Committee of Secretaries chaired by Cabinet Secretary in its meeting held on November 13 had recommended discontinuation of interviews in PSBs for junior level posts.
Recently, the Department of Personnel and Training had said that skill test or physical test may continue as it is different from interview. "However, these tests will only be of qualifying nature. Assessment will not be done on the basis of marks for such tests," it had said.

IBPS Clerk Main expected cut-off.

We have reached this conclusions based on the experience shared by some of the candidates attended  IBPS Clerk CWE-V  main examination. This "expected cut-off" is a wild guess only.Because IBPS is unpredictable these days.As per the information available on media , vacancy is around 25-30k. But this need not be true.There is also a speculation that, there will not be any interview round for clerk recruitment. IBPS has not yet confirmed this rumour. The expected cut-off given below is applicable only if IBPS calls thrice the total number of vacancy available for interview or further round.

IBPS Clerk Mains 2015-16 state-wise expected cut-off

State	General category expected cut-off
Andhra Pradesh	130
Assam	104
Bihar	124
Chhattisgarh	118
Chandigarh	120

West Bengal	130

IBPS Clerk mains 2015 expected sectional cut-off(For general category)

Quant	Reasoning	English	GA	Computer
