The Bar Council of India (BCI) declared the result of the All India Bar Examination (AIBE-XXI), with an overall pass percentage of 65.92.

“The AIBE-XXI was conducted on June 7 across 292 examination centres in 60 different cities where a total of 1,75,701 candidates appeared in the examination,” a release issued on Saturday said.

It said that out of 1,75,701 candidates, 1,10,909 male candidates, 64,784 female candidates and 8 transgender candidates appeared in the exam.

According to the release, the examination was conducted smoothly and in an orderly manner, ensuring fairness, transparency and adherence to the prescribed norms.

The AIBE-XXI was conducted under the direct supervision and guidance of the Monitoring Committee of the All India Bar Examination of the Bar Council of India, headed by former Supreme Court judge Justice Hima Kohli.

“The result was directed to be calculated based on 100 marks. However, the Monitoring Committee noticed that though the cut-off marks for qualifying the AIBE-XXI Examination were fixed at 45 for General candidates and 40 for SC/ST/PwD candidates; however, after perusal of the question paper and result summary, the committee unanimously decided to moderate the result and reduce the qualifying marks by three (3),” the release said.
