The CLAT 2025 counselling is yet to begin and has been postponed indefinitely due to a consolidated list of 15 cases being heard in the Delhi HC. The Delhi HC has reserved its judgement on the UG cases and it is expected that the CLAT 2025 counselling for UG courses will begin shortly. Going by the timeline of the case, the consortium of NLUs will most likely revise the CLAT 2025 results.

Hey there,
If you mean CLAT eligibility for admission to 5-year LLB courses, there is no fixed CLAT score/rank that guarantees eligibility. You must first meet the basic Class 12 eligibility criteria, and admission is based on your CLAT rank, category, preferences, and counselling cut-offs.
