The CLAT 2025 results were announced on December 07, much before they were set to be announced. While there is no explanation for the consortium’s decision to upload CLAT results 2025 unexpectedly, the final answer keys, both CLAT UG and CLAT PG have seen some modifications. Nevertheless, if there are discrepancies in the marks obtained in the final answer key, result and provisional answer key of CLAT 2025, the grievance submission portal was opened for candidates on December 08, 2024. Grievances against the final answer key and CLAT result 2025 can be submitted online from the official website of consortium, consortiumofnlus.ac.in.

The inconsistencies in marks calculated from the CLAT answer key and as shown in the CLAT result will have serious implications for candidates’ chances of getting admission to NLUs. So, it is crucial to report such issues. The NLU Consortium has constituted a Grievance Redressal Committee under the chairmanship of Justice G Raghuram, Former Judge, Andhra Pradesh High Court and former director, the National Judicial Academy.

This is the last stage where the NLU Consortium may entertain the answer key discrepancies that may have been left unresolved. Interestingly, while four questions were withdrawn from the CLAT UG question paper and three questions of logical reasoning were modified, some other objections filed by students from the English and Legal reasoning sections were not sustained.

As per the final answer key, 8 questions have been modified in the CLAT PG answer key. However, students have reported at least 12 such questions. A petition was also filed in the Supreme Court regarding alleged discrepancies in CLAT 2025 and to delay the result declaration. Before it could go for a hearing, the consortium unexpectedly announced the CLAT results.

Hello,

Yes, if a student is from Telangana, they can apply for a reserved seat in CLAT only if they belong to a reserved category such as SC, ST, OBC, EWS, or PwD, as per the rules of CLAT and the participating National Law Universities (NLUs).

However, please note:

  • CLAT does not have a separate “Telangana state quota.”

  • Reservation is given based on category , not on the state, except in some NLUs that offer domicile (state) reservation for their own state students.

So, if you are from Telangana, you can:

  • Apply under your category reservation (like SC/ST/OBC/EWS) .

  • And you may get Telangana domicile reservation only in those NLUs that are located in Telangana (for example, NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad ).

Hope it helps !

Hi Dear Candidate!!

For VITEEE (VIT Engineering Admission), a safe zone generally means scoring around 110–120 out of 125 or securing a rank under 25,000 for most B.Tech branches at VIT Vellore. Other campuses like Chennai, Bhopal, or Amaravati may have slightly lower cutoffs, around ranks 25,000–40,000, depending on the branch. Highly competitive branches like Computer Science or Electronics usually require higher scores, while less competitive branches may have slightly lower requirements.

For CLAT (National Law University Admission), a safe score for top NLUs such as NLU Delhi, Bangalore, or Hyderabad is around 140–145 out of 150 for General category students. Mid-tier NLUs usually require scores in the 120–135 range. Keep in mind that category-wise variations and yearly fluctuations in applicants can slightly change the cutoffs, so aiming higher than these predicted scores is always recommended to ensure a seat.
