Date Published

The AILET PG 2027 application form is finally open. National Law University Delhi started the registration process on 7 August 2026 on its official admission portal, nationallawuniversitydelhi.in. If you are a law graduate planning to pursue an LLM from NLU Delhi, this is the moment you have been waiting for.

AILET, or the All India Law Entrance Test, is conducted by NLU Delhi for admission to its BA LLB (Hons), LLM and PhD programmes. For LLM aspirants, this is often called AILET PG. The exam itself is scheduled for Sunday, 13 December 2026, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, in offline pen and paper mode.

This blog explains the important dates, the eligibility angle for LLM applicants, the documents you need, the step by step process to fill the form, the fee structure, and the common mistakes that get applications rejected every year.

AILET PG 2027: Important Dates

NLU Delhi released the official AILET 2027 notification on 23 July 2026, confirming the exam date. The application form itself went live on 7 August 2026. Based on last year's pattern, the last date to apply is expected around 10 November 2026, though NLU Delhi did extend it by a few days in the previous cycle.

A word of caution here. Extensions have happened before, but they are never guaranteed. It is safer to treat 10 November as your real deadline rather than hoping for extra time.

Who Should Apply for AILET PG?

AILET PG is meant for law graduates who want to pursue an LLM at NLU Delhi. The LLM programme is a one year postgraduate course that offers advanced study in areas such as Corporate Law, Criminal Law, Constitutional Law and other specialised fields.

To be eligible, LLM applicants need an LLB or an equivalent law degree. The exact marks threshold and detailed eligibility conditions are set out in the official admission notice, so it is important to check that document once it is published alongside the fee structure.

There is one point every AILET PG aspirant must keep in mind. NLU Delhi is not part of the CLAT Consortium, and no other National Law University accepts AILET scores. This means that even if you have already filled the CLAT PG application form, you must fill the AILET PG form separately if NLU Delhi is on your list.

Documents Required for AILET PG Registration

Keep these documents ready before you start filling the form. Most rejections happen because of a missing or mismatched document, not because of anything complicated.

•        An active mobile number, since your User ID and password will be sent here

•        A valid email ID for all official communication

•        Class 10 mark sheet, since your name on the form must match this document exactly

•        Class 12 mark sheet

•        LLB degree and mark sheets, which apply specifically to LLM applicants

•        Scanned passport size photograph, recent and front facing, in JPEG format

•        Scanned signature in JPEG format

•        Category certificate, for SC, ST, OBC or PwD candidates, issued by a competent authority

•        BPL certificate, if you are claiming a fee exemption

Photograph and signature file size specifications are given in the admission notice. Last year, files had to be between 15 KB and 250 KB, so it is worth confirming the exact 2027 figures before you upload anything.

How to Fill the AILET PG 2027 Application Form

The form is available only in online mode. There is no offline or postal route for AILET PG registration.

Step 1: Register on the Portal

•        Visit nationallawuniversitydelhi.in from 7 August 2026

•        Click on Register

•        Enter your name, mobile number and email ID

•        Click Submit

Step 2: Receive Your User ID and Password

Your User ID and password are sent to your registered mobile number and email. Save both carefully. You will need them again during the correction window and later to download your admit card.

Step 3: Complete the Application Form

•        Log back in using your User ID and password

•        Enter your personal, communication and academic details

•        Select your exam city preferences, up to three, in order

•        Declare any reservation category you are eligible to claim

On exam cities, keep in mind that if fewer than 100 candidates apply from a particular city, NLU Delhi does not create a centre there, and you get allotted your second or third preference instead. So choose all three cities carefully.

Step 4: Upload Documents and Preview

•        Upload your photograph, signature and category certificates in the specified format

•        Use the Preview option to check every field against your original documents

•        Save your form as a draft if you need to come back to it later

Step 5: Pay the Application Fee

•        Pay online through net banking, debit or credit card, or UPI

•        There is no offline payment option

•        Save the payment receipt and download the confirmation page

You should get an acknowledgement email once your payment clears. If nothing arrives within 72 hours, reach out to the admission helpdesk mentioned in the official notice.

These figures are from the AILET 2026 cycle and are shown here as indicative. The 23 July 2026 notification confirmed only the exam date and the application window. The exact AILET PG 2027 fee is confirmed in the admission notice, so check that before you make any payment.

Two more things to remember. The fee is non refundable once paid, even if you later withdraw your application. Bank transaction charges may also apply on top of the fee, and these will be shown at the payment gateway.

Mistakes to Avoid While Filling the AILET PG Form

•        Name mismatch: enter your name in capital letters exactly as it appears on your Class 10 certificate

•        Applying on the last day: the portal slows down under heavy load in the final 48 hours, and a failed payment at that stage can cost you the entire cycle

•        Choosing exam cities carelessly: treat all three preferences as real choices, not just the first one

•        Claiming a category you cannot document: category, programme and BPL status cannot be changed after final submission

•        Losing your login credentials: your User ID and password are needed again for the correction window and for your admit card

•        Submitting more than one form: if multiple applications are made with the same phone number and email, only the last one counts, and the fee on the earlier ones is not refunded

Aashayein After LLB's Take on AILET PG Registration

At Aashayein After LLB, we always tell our LLM aspirants to treat form filling as seriously as the exam itself. A small error in your name or a missed document can undo months of preparation before the exam even begins.

Once your AILET PG registration is done, do not let your preparation slow down. Keep your documents and login details safe, track the correction window dates, and use the time between now and December to strengthen your subject knowledge and attempt mock tests regularly.

Our recommendation is simple. Register early, double check every field using the Preview option, and then shift your full focus to preparation.
