The Common Law Admission Test is the biggest law entrance in India. Like other entrance exams, CLAT 2026 also has a reservation criterion where seats are reserved for different categories both vertically and horizontally. When it comes to reservations, many NLUs reserve seats for female candidates through the CLAT exam. While the consortium has not specified any fixed reservation criteria for women candidates, many NLUs reserve seats for women candidates. For example, NLSIU Bengaluru has 90 seats reserved for women candidates. Admissions to these seats are done based on the CLAT cutoff. In this article, we will discuss in detail the CLAT 2026 cutoff for female candidates, previous years’ CLAT cutoff for women candidates and more.

Hello,
In CLAT , the 9-digit admit card number is not the same as the roll number you have to write on the OMR sheet. The OMR sheet has only 7 blocks because the CLAT roll number is shorter.
You should check your admit card again and look for the roll number printed near your name and exam details. Fill only that roll number in the OMR sheet. Do not write the 9-digit admit card number.
If you still cannot find the roll number, you can ask the exam invigilator on the exam day.
Hope it helps !
