  2. It seems finally IBPS is listening and willing to provide information about milestone dates. IBPS Call centres has now starting telling the telephonic inquiries that IBPS PO III final result and allotments will happen in first week of April 2014. So, it is now official that IBPS PO III results will come out in April only, unless, IBPS changes its plan.
