The Delhi HC has ordered the Consortium of NLUs to publish the CLAT 2025 revised result within 4 weeks. The CLAT 2025 UG judgement has made revisions in 4 questions which will significantly change a candidate’s score in the CLAT 2025 revised result. The analysis of impact of the CLAT 2025 UG judgement on the result shows that a candidate’s score is likely to increase by up to 4 marks and decrease by up to 2.25 marks. In this article, let’s understand the details of this change in CLAT 2025 score.
The Consortium of NLUs is expected to start the CLAT 2025 counselling soon and publish the first CLAT 2025 merit list as per the revised result.
The Delhi HC had taken up petitions related to 17 questions. Out of these, 4 objections have been accepted and others were rejected. While, the rejected questions will not have any impact on the score in CLAT revised result, the four questions will change the score. The details of the four questions are given below.

5 | Correct answer changed to Option C from option D |
77 | Question withdrawn as it requires prior knowledge of law and is out of syllabus. Earlier answer was option B |
