A total of 45 candidates (30 male and 15 female) scored among the 99.90 percentile.

The exam for entry into undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) courses at National Law Universities (NLUs) was held on December 3 at 139 test centres across India.

As per a press release issued by the NLU Consortium, over 1 lakh candidates applied for the UG and PG exams.

This, the Consortium stated, reflected a 34.7% increase in applications for the UG exam and a 25.8% increase in PG exam applications.

A revised provisional answer key was released on December 4, after errors were found in the initial answer key.
