    What Happens After the Objections are Raised?

    After candidates file objections against the CLAT 2026 provisional answer key, the Consortium's expert panel reviews each challenge carefully. Experts check facts, evidence, and reasoning provided by the candidates. The CLAT final answer key will be prepared based on all the objections received. If there are any valid objections found, they will be incorporated into the final answer key. This updated key will be released tentatively in the second or third week of December 2025. Once the final answer key is published, the CLAT 2026 result will be declared on the official website.
