Dear Aspirant,

Yes, there is negative marking for each incorrect answer you give. It's -1/4 or -0.25 per wrong answer. I assure you. So, I suggest don't attempt all the question thinking there is no negative marking. I am providing you a link to a website which contains updated information about this exam. You can completely trust this website.
