CLAT 2027 result will be declared by the Consortium of National Law Universities at consortiumofnlus.ac.in after the entrance exam. CLAT 2027 is scheduled to be conducted on Dec 6, 2026, and the result is expected to be released in Dec 2026. Candidates can check their results by logging in to the official CLAT portal using their registered credentials.

CLAT 2027 result sits behind a candidate login, not a public roll-number page.
CLAT 2027 scorecard carries more than a single total. Each field plays a role somewhere in counselling and seat allotment, so it is worth reading in full rather than just checking the rank.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Candidate Details | Name, father's name, roll number and application number |
| Subject-wise Marks | Section-wise marks for UG, or the single law section for PG |
| Total Marks | Combined score out of 120, with 1 mark for a correct answer and 0.25 deducted for a wrong one |
| All India Rank | Rank used for centralised counselling across all 24 NLUs |
| Category Rank | Rank within the candidate's own reservation category |
CLAT 2027 does not apply one single tie-breaking method across both programmes. The difference comes from how each paper is actually structured, not from any inconsistency in the Consortium's rules.
| Programme | Tie Break Order |
|---|---|
| UG Tie Break | Higher Legal Reasoning marks first, then older age, then a computerised draw of lots |
| PG Tie Break | Older age first, then a computerised draw of lots |
PG skips the subject-marks step entirely, since the PG paper has only one section covering law itself, so there is no separate legal-reasoning score to compare candidates on beyond the total itself.
CLAT 2027 cutoff is not one number released with the result itself. Each NLU sets its own closing rank per category once seat allotment rounds run. NLSIU Bengaluru and NALSAR Hyderabad typically close at the strongest ranks. Several newer NLUs close much further down the list, often several hundred ranks lower. A dedicated CLAT 2027 cutoff page carries the full NLU-wise and category-wise figures. This page only confirms that an All India Rank and a specific NLU's closing rank are two different things.
CLAT 2027 treats the declared scorecard as final. The Consortium does not run a marks-revaluation process once the result is out.
CLAT 2027 rank does not just decide admission by itself. It also determines counselling call order across every participating university. This rank leads into a single, centralised counselling process covering all 24 participating NLUs together, rather than a separate process for each university.
A handful of details from this cycle are easy to miss but still matter once the scorecard is out.
CLAT 2027 result comes from the Consortium of National Law Universities, a body formed jointly by India's NLUs rather than any single government department or one lead institute. This shared structure is also why the result needs formal Governing Body approval before it goes live, unlike an exam run by one authority alone. Each participating NLU still runs its own admission process after counselling. The entrance test, result and initial merit list stay common across all of them, which keeps the process broadly consistent from one candidate's application to the next.
CLAT 2027 UG and PG papers look similar on the surface; both are scored out of 120, but CLAT 2027 Syllabus for each one covers very different ground. differs sharply from one paper to the other. The table below sets both side by side.
| Programme | Sections | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| UG | 5 sections | English, Current Affairs, Legal Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, Quantitative Techniques |
| PG | 1 section | Law subjects only, including Constitutional Law, Contracts, Torts and Criminal Law |
Candidates often treat these three CLAT 2027 terms as one and the same. The Consortium actually treats them as separate things.
| Term | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Result | The full declaration event covering every candidate across UG and PG |
| Scorecard | The individual document showing one candidate's own marks and rank |
| Merit List | The consolidated ranked list used to call candidates into counselling |
CLAT 2026 result stage is now complete, with scorecards, ranks and the merit list all confirmed. A candidate with a usable rank should focus next on counselling preference locking rather than anything left to check on the scorecard itself.
Ques: Does a candidate who appeared for both CLAT UG and PG get a single combined rank?
Ans: No. UG and PG are scored, ranked and counselled entirely separately, so a candidate who sat for both receives two distinct results.
Ques: Why does CLAT 2027 PG tie break skip the subject-marks comparison that UG uses?
Ans: Because the PG paper has only one section, covering law itself. There is no separate legal-reasoning score to compare, so age is checked first instead.
Ques: What can a candidate do if their name or category is printed incorrectly on CLAT 2027 scorecard?
Ans: This counts as a factual error, not a marks dispute. It should be raised through the Consortium's online grievance process, which verifies the claim before updating the scorecard.
Ques: Is the highest CLAT 2027 UG score the same as the cutoff for NLSIU Bengaluru?
Ans: No. The highest score only confirms the top of the merit list. NLSIU Bengaluru's actual closing rank is set separately during counselling and is not the same figure.
Ques: Can CLAT 2027 score be used for admission the following year?
Ans: No. CLAT scores are valid for one academic year only, so a candidate wanting to use a fresh score in a later cycle needs to reappear.
