CLAT 2025 Result Ranks to be Revised: Delhi High Court retains 2 objections, details here
The Delhi High Court ordered the NLU Consortium to correct two flawed questions, stating that the mistakes were apparent. Therefore, CLAT 2025 result ranks are most likely to be revised.
CLAT 2025 Result Ranks to be Revised: The Delhi High Court has issued a directive to the Consortium of National Law Universities (CNLU) regarding the revision of results for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2025 undergraduate examination. This decision follows a thorough examination of the awarding of marks for two specific questions that were contested by a petitioner. The court upheld the petitioner’s challenge concerning question 14 of the exam. After reviewing the marking scheme, the court ordered that candidates who selected option ‘C’ for this question be awarded marks, as it was confirmed to be the correct answer. This decision is significant, as it will positively impact all candidates who answered accordingly, potentially altering their overall scores and admission prospects.
In addition to this, the court addressed question 100, which had also been a point of contention. Upon considering the recommendations put forth by an Expert Committee, the court ruled to exclude this question entirely from the evaluation process. This exclusion necessitates a comprehensive revision of the results for all candidates who took the exam, ensuring that the outcomes reflect a fair assessment free from the disputed questions.

As a result of these rulings, the Consortium of National Law Universities is required to promptly announce the revised results, reflecting the adjustments made by the court's decisions. This outcome highlights the importance of accuracy and fairness in the examination process, especially in competitive assessments like the CLAT 2025.
The National Law University (NLU) is consulting legal experts on the next steps, which has delayed the release of the first admission list originally scheduled for December 26, 2024. NLU stated that they recognize this may cause uncertainty, but they are committed to transparency and fairness. As a result, the release of the first admission list for NLU is likely to be postponed.
