MAH 5-Year LLB CAP 2026 Round III and Institutional Round Dates

Round III is open to unregistered CET-qualified candidates as well. Registration for this group runs from August 5 to September 5, 2026.

Why Was the MAH 5-Year LLB CAP 2026 Schedule Revised?

The CET Cell has cited pending statutory approvals as the reason. Many law colleges have not yet received Bar Council of India clearance. Others are awaiting affiliation from their parent universities.

These approvals decide which colleges appear in the option form. A wider window gives candidates time to add newly approved colleges to their preference list.
