The exam authority, the Consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs), will complete the CLAT 2023 admission process before March 2023, so that the new session begins on time.

The merit list of shortlisted candidates are intimated via mail and further released on the official website.The first list of CLATcounseling will be declared on the merit-cum-preference basis of CLAT Exam 2023. A specified number of candidates from various categories are allowed to participate in the counseling process for the seats available in the NLUs.
This amount is not any additional charge rather it will be deducted from the admission fee while enrolling into any of the participating law schools. If any student fails to deposit the amount within the due time, they will lose their right to consideration for CLAT admissions.
After the publication of first indicative list, the shortlisted candidates can 'Lock' the seat of their choice in the allotted NLU. Once the candidate has locked a seat, he/ she will not be considered for the upward shifting to any other NLUs even in the case of any vacancy arising thereafter at the subsequent stage during the counseling process.
Candidates can also choose the option of 'Shifting' where they will be considered against any other vacancies arising in the NLU of their higher choice through subsequent allotment of list. The shifting is always done in the upward manner as per the candidates' preference filled in the CLAT 2023 Application Form. There is no downward shift at any stage ofthe counseling process.
The candidates are also provided with the option of 'Withdrawal' of their fees. Either they may fail to deposit the requisite fee or they can choose the option to withdraw before the final seat allotment during the 4th round of CLAT counseling.
