    NALSAR Hyderabad has established a total intake of 132 seats for the BA LLB (Hons) program for the 2026 academic session. The seats are categorised into a 75% quota for All India candidates (99 seats) and a 25% quota specifically for Resident Students of Telangana (33 seats). Within this CLAT 2026 reservation policy, the university mandates 30% of the total intake, i.e. 39 seats, be reserved for female candidates across all respective categories. Furthermore, 5% of the seats (totalling 6 seats) are horizontally reserved for Persons with Benchmark Disabilities (PwD).

    CLAT 2026 First Allotment List

    The release of the first allotment list on January 07, 2026, marks the start of the CLAT 2026 admission finalisation. Students allotted NALSAR must choose to "Freeze" their seat to confirm admission, or "Float" if they are aiming for an upgrade to NLSIU Bangalore in subsequent rounds. Given the high demand, CLAT seats in the General category at NALSAR rarely remain vacant beyond the second round. Candidates should ensure all category certificates and academic documents are ready for immediate verification upon allotment. Failure to take action or pay the confirmation fee within the specified time will result in the forfeiture of the seat.
