In clat allotment process in the confirm and upgradation should we still pay Rs 50000

After CLAT counselling fees have been deposited, the committee will issue second indicative seat allotment list mentioning the names who have locked their NLU seats and a list of candidates who are provisionally selected for the second round of CLAT counselling 2018 against the vacant seats made by the dropped out candidates of the first counselling round. This indicative list is for the CLAT Counselling Round II.

The list will also indicate the candidates who have been upgraded/ shifted to a higher NLU arising out of the vacancy.

The candidates who have been freshly added to the second indicative counselling list of CLAT 2018 will need to pay the counselling fees by a stipulated time limit (refer CLAT 2018 counselling schedule above). However, those who have been upgraded need not to re-deposit the fee.

Similar to the first seat allotment and CLAT counselling round I, candidates who fail to deposit the counselling fee within the time limit will forfeit their rights to be selected for NLU admissions and their names will be dropped from the merit list of CLAT 2018.

Before publishing third indicative list, the CLAT committee provides a withdrawal option to all those candidates who have been allotted NLUs in the previous CLAT counselling rounds.

Those who wish to withdraw from CLAT 2018 admissions will need to exercise the ‘Withdrawal’ option after which an amount will be credited to their registered bank account after deducting Rs.10,000 from deposited counselling fees. However, those who withdraw their allotted NLU seats after the last date of withdrawal will not be liable to receive any amount and it’ll result in forfeiture of the entire CLAT 2018 counselling fee.

Further, the CLAT 2018 admission office will publish third and the last indicative list of CLAT counselling 2018 mentioning all those candidates who have been allotted NLUs for a final term.

Candidates as per the final seat allotment list of CLAT 2018 counselling will have to deposit the entire fees at their respective allotted NLUs.

The candidates are required to report at their respective NLUs with their relevant certificate/ documents required for the CLAT 2018 admission formalities.

It must be noted that the candidates who do not meet CLAT 2018 eligibility criteria will not be offered admissions to NLUs even if they have been allotted a seat and their candidature will remain cancelled thereon. Further, no communication will be entertained in this regard.

Such candidates will also automatically lose their candidature as well as CLAT counselling fee amount of Rs. 50,000 and can’t claim for that, under any circumstances.
