CLAT 2025 SC Stay Order: When Will Consortium of NLUs Declare Revised Result? Check Dates
In the hearing conducted on April 30, the Supreme Court stayed the Delhi HC judgement delivered on April 23 that directed the Consortium of National Law Universities to publish CLAT 2025 revised result within four weeks. The SC stay order was passed by a division bench presided by Justice B R Gavai and Justice AG Masih while hearing a petition filed by candidate Siddhi Sandeep Ladda. The Consortium of NLUs has now notified that the next SC hearing in the matter will be conducted on May 5, 2025. After the HC judgement, candidates were hopeful that the revised result for CLAT UG will finally be declared. However, with the new SC order, the wait for the CLAT 2025 final result will prolong further. In this article, find out when the Consortium of NLUs is expected to declare the CLAT 2025 result.

The CLAT UG programme has 3,705 seats and the CLAT PG programme offers 1,436 seats. In addition, 247 UG and 69 PG seats are earmarked for NRI and foreign nationals, along with 140 UG and 94 PG supernumerary seats. This takes the total seat count to 4,092 for UG programmes and 1,599 for PG programmes.
The CLAT PG hearing is also scheduled to be conducted on May 2 in the Delhi HC. It remains to be seen whether the HC goes ahead with the hearing and delivers the judgement for cases in CLAT PG exam.
What Does the CLAT 2025 SC Stay Order Say?
The SC verdict puts a stay on the earlier HC order passed on April 23 to publish the revised CLAT result. The stay order issued by the top court is in response to a Special Leave Petition (SLP) filed by Siddhi Sandeep Ladda who had attempted Set A question paper in CLAT 2025.
The candidate had secured a rank of AIR 22 as per the earlier result declared on December 7, 2024. She argues that the Delhi HC judgement puts candidates who attempted Set A at a disadvantage compared to candidates who attempted Set B,C and D.
It is to be noted that the Delhi HC judgement had ordered the revision of the CLAT 2025 answer key for four questions. In one of those questions,namely Q.no 116, candidates who attempted Set B,C and D were given the benefit of erroneous numbering of questions while candidates who attempted Set A did not get the benefit.

When Will Consortium Declare Revised Result?
The SC stay order now prohibits the Consortium of NLUs from publishing the CLAT 2025 revised result. The next hearing in the SC case is scheduled to be conducted on May 5. It remains to be seen whether the consortium will challenge the SC order. However, it looks certain that the CLAT results will be further delayed due to the new case. The CLAT 2025 counselling process will restart only once all the cases are resolved

Have a question related to CLAT ?
Hello,
With a score of 82 in CLAT 2026 under the EWS category, you do have a chance at getting into decent NLUs, but it may depend on the specific NLU and the cut-offs for this year.
Generally:
-
Top NLUs (like NLSIU, NALSAR, NUJS, WBNUJS) usually have higher cut-offs, so 82 might be below their usual EWS opening rank.
-
Mid-tier NLUs (like HNLU, GNLU, RMLNLU, NLUJ) could be within reach.
-
Lower-ranked NLUs and state NLUs are more likely to accept your score.
Your best step is to check the previous years’ EWS cut-offs for each NLU to see where your rank might fit.
Hope it helps !
Hello,
NUJS is among the top tier law colleges in the country. A high score in CLAT is required to get into NUJS. For you, getting into NUJS is possible but challenging. The cut off for general category often is very high (+90), but you WB domicile improves your chances for admission. Keep an eye on the final rank list and cut off.
Thank you.
Hello
With a score of 91.5 in CLAT UG 2026, your expected All India Rank would likely fall somewhere around AIR 500 to 1,000, based on previous years’ trends. The exact rank can shift depending on how tough the paper was and how other students performed. Since you belong to the OBC category, your category rank will be even better. This score definitely keeps you in a competitive range for several NLUs.
Hello,

Thank you.
If you are expecting around 80 marks in CLAT 2026, your chances will mainly depend on that year’s overall difficulty level and how the marks translate into ranks. In most years, a score around 80 usually places candidates somewhere in the mid-rank range, which means that the top NLUs like NLSIU Bengaluru, NALSAR Hyderabad or WBNUJS Kolkata are generally difficult to get at this score. However, some of the newer or mid-tier NLUs may still be possible depending on cut-offs, reservation category, and seat availability during later rounds. Students with similar scores in past years have sometimes received calls from NLUs such as NLU Jabalpur, NLU Assam, NLU Tripura, NLU Aurangabad, or NLU Shimla, but the exact possibilities shift every year. Treat this score as competitive but not in the top bracket, and wait for the official ranks to get a clearer picture of which options are realistically open. All the best!
