NLSIU Bangalore Cutoff 2025 (What We Know So Far)

The Third Allotment List shows that for General category, NLSIU admitted students up to All India Rank ~100 in many cases.

This means ranks slightly above or below 100 may or may not get a seat depending on category, home-state vs all-India quota, and available seats.


What After the CLAT 2025 Cutoff Release?

 

  • Once cutoffs and allotment lists are out, here’s what you should do:
  • Check seat allotment thoroughly for your name, rank, category.
  • If allotted: Complete admission formalities (document verification, etc.).
  • If not allotted: Be ready for waiting lists or further counselling rounds.
  • Consider alternate NLUs or backup options in your preference list.

 


Some Trends: Comparing 2024 vs 2025

 

  • The closing rank for General category seems stable around ~100 in recent years for NLSIU.
  • Reserved categories continue to have wider closing rank ranges (SC, ST especially).
  • Competition remains very high; small differences in score or rank matter.

 


Why These Cutoffs Matter for You

 

  • They help you set realistic target ranks for your preparation.
  • You get to understand how tough competition is - so you don’t lose motivation, but you also don’t overreach blindly.
  • Cutoffs help you plan your choice of preferences wisely in CLAT counselling.

 


Final Word

If you're targeting NLSIU Bangalore, aim as high as possible. For General category students, a rank around or under 100 in All India quota is very competitive. For reserved categories, being well within their 2024 closing ranks gives you a good chance.

Stay calm, keep practicing, and don’t be discouraged if the cutoff seems high - lots of students crack it every year with smart work and steady effort.
