The CLAT merit list is prepared for each round of counselling for admission into each of the participating NLUs in CLAT. Candidates are included in the merit list as per their ranks, which are determined by the marks obtained by them in CLAT. It is therefore important for a candidate to understand the CLAT marks vs rank comparison to ascertain their chances of admission.
The candidates are also arranged according to the category they belong to. Another factor that influences the candidate’s inclusion in the CLAT merit list for any particular NLU is whether the candidate has opted for that NLU when submitting the NLU preferences.

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 !
Hello,
To check your CLAT exam hall ticket, go to the official website, log in with your registration or application number and password (or other login details), and the admit card will be displayed on the screen. You should then download and print at least two copies of the admit card for the exam and counselling process.
I hope it will clear your query!!
