Hello,
With a Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) rank of 21,000, your chances of securing admission into the top-tier National Law Universities (NLUs) are slim, as their cutoff ranks typically fall below 10,000 for the unreserved category. However, based on previous years' NLU's cutoffs , you might have chances at the following types of institutions:

Hello Kuldeep,
With a CLAT 2025 rank of 21,000 , admission into National Law Universities (NLUs) is unlikely as the cutoff ranks for NLUs, even for reserved categories, generally close much earlier. However, several private law colleges and universities accept CLAT scores and may offer you admission. Some of these colleges include:
UPES Dehradun Known for specialized law courses in energy, corporate, and technology law.
NMIMS School of Law, Mumbai Offers good placement opportunities and infrastructure.
MIT World Peace University, Pune Offers modern legal education with good campus facilities.
Alliance University, Bangalore Recognized for its legal programs and vibrant campus life.
Christ University, Bangalore (if eligible through other criteria) May consider CLAT scores in combination with its internal processes.
Additionally, private universities like Amity Law School , ICFAI Law School , and Sharda University also accept students with CLAT scores at this rank. Ensure you confirm individual college admission criteria and deadlines, as some might also have alternate pathways for admission.
I would recommend you to use CLAT College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.
