AILET 2027: NLU Delhi Extends Fee Payment Deadline Amid Transaction Issues

The National Law University (NLU) Delhi has officially extended the deadline for AILET 2027 application fee payments, providing relief to candidates who encountered technical difficulties during the registration process. Applicants now have until 8:00 AM on November 14, 2026, to successfully complete their fee transactions. This extension follows reports of payment errors, including pending statuses and duplicate charges, which have caused concern among prospective students.

The registration process for the All India Law Entrance Test (AILET) 2027 remains strictly online, and candidates must complete their submissions through the official portal at nationallawuniversitydelhi.in. It is important to note that the application process is only considered complete once the payment has been successfully processed. As the registration deadline is November 13, 2026, candidates are encouraged to resolve any outstanding payment issues promptly to ensure their eligibility for the examination.

Managing Payment Failures and Official Support

For candidates whose transactions have failed, NLU Delhi has outlined specific procedures to verify payment status and rectify errors. If no funds were deducted from the applicant's account, they are advised to attempt the payment process again. In cases where funds were deducted but the application status remains unconfirmed, candidates should contact the university’s support team for assistance.

When reaching out for support, applicants must provide essential details, including their application number, full name, registered mobile number, email address, and proof of the transaction. While there is no dedicated mobile helpline, the university has made a landline number, 011-28034257, available for inquiries. The support desk operates on all working days between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM. The university has reiterated that there is no provision for offline application submission, and all documentation must be managed through the official website.

Fee Structure and Examination Requirements

The application fee for AILET 2027 is set at INR 3,000 for candidates in the General, OBC, EWS, and Foreign National categories. For candidates belonging to SC, ST, and PwD categories, the fee is reduced to INR 1,000. Additionally, SC/ST candidates and women candidates falling under the Below Poverty Line (BPL) category are exempt from the application fee.

Beyond the payment process, candidates are required to select up to three preferences for their examination centre, which is a mandatory step for form submission. The final allotment of the examination centre will be communicated to candidates upon the release of the admit cards. Once available, admit cards can be downloaded from the official website using the candidate's application ID, password, and Exam Unique Code (EUC). The admit card will contain vital information, including the specific name and address of the assigned examination centre.
