What time should you reach the CLAT exam centre?
The Consortium has set no reporting time for the CLAT exam centre. The paper starts at 2:00 pm. Read your CLAT exam admit card 2027 when it is released. Look for a reporting time on it. If it shows none, write to the helpdesk.
What items are prohibited at the CLAT exam centre?
The CLAT 2027 pages carry no prohibited items list for the CLAT exam centre. The only official wording close to CLAT exam day guidelines is the CLAT 2026 question booklet. The booklet says: "Possession of Electronic Devices such as mobile phones, headphones, digital watches, etc., is/are strictly prohibited in the test premises." That sentence is from the and does not set the prohibited items for CLAT 2027.
Is there a dress code for the CLAT exam?
No dress code is published for CLAT 2027.
What did the CLAT 2026 question booklet ask candidates to do?
The CLAT exam day guidelines in the 2026 booklet asked for the name and admit card number on its cover. The booklet told candidates to write the booklet number and the OMR sheet number and to sign the attendance sheet. The booklet also said the paper must not be opened before 2 pm. Candidates could keep the booklet and their copy of the OMR sheet after the test.
The marking is +1 for a right answer and -0.25 for a wrong answer. The CLAT 2027 exam pattern page explains how four wrong answers cancel one right answer.
The CLAT 2026 booklets are hosted on the Consortium's site and listed on the CLAT previous year question papers page.
What extra time and help do PwD candidates get on CLAT exam day?
The CLAT exam day guidelines give eligible PwD candidates until 4:40 pm. That is 40 minutes more than other candidates. The PwD policy dated 7 September 2026 asks candidates to indicate the need in the application form. The policy also asks them to upload a valid UDID card or disability certificate and to say whether they need a scribe. For a requirement not covered by the application form, write to the PwD Nodal Officer at least 10 working days before the exam. If a disability arises after applying, send the request not later than two working days before the exam.
