Important Instructions
- →Round 1, 2, and 3 allotment results are published at 5:00 PM on the scheduled date for both courses. → Candidates not yet registered but holding a valid MH CET Law 2026 qualification can still register for Round III and institutional-level round between August 5 and September 5, 2026. → The Betterment option can be used a maximum of two times and is not available in Round III. → Round III is the final CAP round — there is no auto-freeze, so candidates must actively select Freeze or Betterment after each allotment. → Freeze option requires payment of Rs.1,000 and confirms your seat without seeking further allotment. → Betterment option also requires Rs.1,000 payment and allows seeking a preferred college in a later round. → Always cross-check dates on the official portal as CAP schedules are subject to revision by the CET Cell. → Round 1 dates were revised from August 12/13 to August 14/17, 2026 due to pending BCI approval for some law colleges.

📈 Year-over-Year Trend
MAH LLB CAP 2026 dates shifted by a few days due to BCI approval delays — expect the CET Cell to keep monitoring college approvals closely. With 3 rounds plus an institutional round, seat availability should improve for late registrants by Round III.
❓ More Information You Need
Q: Am I even eligible to apply — do I need to have already taken MH CET Law 2026, or can I still register for it?
This CAP process is only for candidates who already have a valid MH CET Law 2026 score. If you haven’t taken the exam, you cannot participate in this admission round; the CET itself is a separate prior exam with its own registration that has already closed by this stage.
Q: What are the actual number of seats/colleges, and what is the general age limit — the page just says ‘as per participating colleges’ and ‘as per norms’?
Seat numbers vary by college and are published in the CAP seat matrix (available after registration on the CAP portal), not as a single fixed number. For age, MH CET Law has no strict upper age limit for 3-year LLB, but 5-year integrated LLB typically requires the candidate to be under 20 years (25 for reserved categories) as per Bar Council of India rules — this should be stated directly instead of ‘as per norms’.
Q: How much does the LLB course itself cost, and is this Rs.1,000 fee for admission or per option (Freeze/Betterment)?
The Rs.1,000 is a processing fee charged only when you choose Freeze or Betterment after seat allotment (not a course fee). Actual LLB tuition fees depend on the specific college (government law colleges range roughly Rs.15,000–50,000/year, private colleges much higher) and are not part of this CAP fee structure.
