NLU Delhi invites 3 times the number of students in each category. With 110 seats offered through AILET, 330 students will be invited for the counselling. Of these, the general category, where over 14,000 students have appeared, has 50 seats, and accordingly, AILET counselling invitations will be given to 150 (including 9 PwD students).
OBC non-creamy layer will have 72 students getting invitations, including 3 PwD students. Under the SC and ST categories, 51 and 24 students will get the counselling invite.
