CLAT Result 2025 To Be Revised or Not? Delhi HC To Take Decision Today

The Delhi High Court is scheduled to hear a series of petitions today, April 7, 2025, challenging the results of the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2025. The outcomes of this hearing could significantly influence the future of numerous law aspirants and the forthcoming counselling process.​

Background of the CLAT 2025 Result Case

The CLAT 2025 examination, conducted on December 1, 2024, serves as the gateway for admissions into undergraduate and postgraduate law programs across National Law Universities (NLUs) in India. Following the release of results on December 7, 2024, several candidates raised concerns over alleged discrepancies in the CLAT 2025 final answer key and the normalisation process. These grievances led to multiple petitions being filed in various high courts nationwide. To ensure uniformity in adjudication, the Supreme Court consolidated these cases and transferred them to the Delhi High Court. ​

Court's Previous Observations

In an earlier session, the Delhi High Court acknowledged the urgency of the matter, emphasising the anxiety faced by students awaiting clarity on their results. The court had directed the Consortium of NLUs to submit a counter-affidavit addressing the raised concerns within a stipulated timeframe. ​

The decision expected today holds substantial implications:​

  • Result Revisions: Should the court find merit in the petitioners' claims, there may be directives for re-evaluation or amendments to the published results.​
  • Counselling Schedule: The counselling process, initially set to commence shortly after the results, has been on hold pending judicial outcomes. A clear verdict will pave the way for its resumption.​
  • Admission Timelines: Any alterations to the results or counselling procedures could impact the academic calendar of NLUs, potentially delaying the commencement of courses.​

Aspirants, their families, and academic institutions are keenly awaiting the court's decision. The Consortium of NLUs has expressed its commitment to adhering to the court's directives, aiming to uphold the integrity of the admission process. ​ As the Delhi High Court convenes to deliberate on the CLAT 2025 result petitions, the legal fraternity and student community remain on tenterhooks.
