What is the IBPS PO photo size in KB?

JPG / JPEG, 20 to 50 KB, 200 x 230 px. Light-coloured, preferably white background. No caps, hats or dark glasses; religious headwear must not cover the face. Read from IBPS CRP PO/MT-XVI notification, Annexure III: Guidelines for Scanning and Upload of Documents, dated 1 Jul 2026, on 29 Jul 2026.

How do I reduce a photo to under 50 KB for IBPS PO?

Keep the pixel size the notice asks for and lower the JPEG quality until the file lands between 20 KB and 50 KB - that is the range Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) accepts. The resizer on this page does exactly that: it draws your photo onto a 200 x 230 px canvas without cropping it, then binary-searches JPEG quality for the highest setting whose file still fits the range. Re-scanning at a lower DPI or fewer colours is the other route the notice itself suggests.

What is the IBPS PO signature size in KB?

JPG / JPEG, 10 to 20 KB, 140 x 60 px. Black ink on white paper. A signature in capital letters is not accepted.

Does the IBPS PO photo need the name and date printed on it?

Not required. The scanning annexure sets background, ink, pixel and DPI rules only; it prints no line asking for the candidate's name or the date of the photograph on the image. Read from IBPS CRP PO/MT-XVI notification, Annexure III: Guidelines for Scanning and Upload of Documents, dated 1 Jul 2026, on 29 Jul 2026.

IBPS CRP PO/MT-XVI notification, Annexure III: Guidelines for Scanning and Upload of Documents

Document date: 1 Jul 2026
Read on: 29 Jul 2026
Status: Read from the official PDF

Who lands on this page

The ibps.in upload gate rejected a file and the exact KB range is needed.
A scan is larger than the ceiling Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) sets and has to come down without changing the pixel size.
A IBPS PO form asks for photograph, signature, left thumb impression, handwritten declaration and each one has a different limit.
A specification found on a coaching site needs checking against the notification it claims to quote.

How the resizer hits the target

Pick the file you are fixing: IBPS PO accepts photograph, signature, left thumb impression, handwritten declaration.
Choose the scan or photo from the device. It is decoded in the browser and never uploaded.
The image is drawn onto a white canvas with its aspect ratio kept, so nothing is cropped or stretched. Canvas size: 200 x 230 px.
A binary search over JPEG quality finds the highest quality whose encoded file still sits between 20 KB and 50 KB.
Check the pass or fail line for each rule, then download the JPEG and upload it at ibps.in.

How this page is built

The spec and the tool are the same record: The table above and the resizer preset are generated from one entry, so the IBPS PO target shown is the target the tool encodes to.
Every row is dated: Each figure carries the document it came from (IBPS CRP PO/MT-XVI notification, Annexure III: Guidelines for Scanning and Upload of Documents) and the date that document was read (29 Jul 2026), so a row that goes out of date reads as a dated fact rather than a wrong one.
The file never leaves the device: Decoding, resizing and JPEG encoding all happen in the browser through a canvas; nothing is uploaded to a server.
The size is searched, not guessed: A binary search over JPEG quality finds the highest quality whose encoded size still sits inside the range, then reports the size, the quality and the number of steps it took.
