Upon viewing a successful allotment, candidates must strategically choose one of the following options within the stipulated deadline:

Freeze: Select this if you are satisfied with the allotted seat and wish to confirm your admission. Choosing 'Freeze' secures your seat, but you will not participate in any further counselling rounds.

Float: Opt for 'Float' if you accept the current allotment but wish to be considered for a preferable NLU in subsequent rounds. This holds your current seat while allowing you to upgrade if a seat in a higher-preference college becomes available.

Exit: Choose this to withdraw completely from the CLAT 2026 counselling process. Your seat will be relinquished for other candidates.

Fee Payment and Document Preparation

First-Time Allottees: Candidates receiving a seat allotment for the first time in this second round must pay the mandatory confirmation fee within the given timeframe. Failure to pay will lead to automatic seat cancellation.

All Candidates: The window for fee payment and document verification for the second list is typically short. Keep all original documents ready for upload and eventual physical verification. Essential documents include:

  • CLAT 2026 Admit Card
  • CLAT 2026 Score Card
  • Class 10th and 12th Mark Sheets and Passing Certificates
  • Category Certificate (if applicable)
  • Transfer Certificate (TC)
  • Passport-sized Photographs

Key Dates and Vigilance Advised

The Consortium allocates limited time for each counselling step. Candidates must regularly monitor their registered email and the official website for updates regarding:

  • The deadline for selecting Freeze, Float, or Exit options.
  • The last date for confirmation fee payment.
  • Schedule for document upload/verification.
  • Missing any deadline will result in the forfeiture of the allotted seat.

For candidates who chose the 'Float' option or did not receive an allotment, the counselling process will continue with subsequent rounds. The Consortium will release further allotment lists based on seat availability and preferences.
