The Bar Council of India has officially published the final answer key for the All India Bar Examination XXI (AIBE 21) on July 10, 2026.

The final document is now available for download on the official portal, allindiabarexamination.com, and serves as the definitive reference for calculating scores. Candidates who participated in the examination held on June 7, 2026, are advised to download the PDF corresponding to their specific question paper set to verify their responses. The BCI has clarified that no further challenges or objections will be entertained regarding this final version. The upcoming results for the AIBE 21 will be strictly based on the corrections and validations reflected in this final answer key. Aspirants should maintain a saved copy of this document for their personal records and future verification during the result declaration phase. As the result announcement is expected shortly, candidates are encouraged to monitor the official website for further updates regarding their performance and qualifying status.

The selection process for the All India Bar Examination is based on a single-stage written test. Candidates are evaluated on their knowledge of legal subjects and professional ethics as prescribed by the Bar Council of India. The final result is determined by comparing the candidate's responses against the finalized answer key. There is no negative marking, and candidates must meet the category-specific qualifying percentage to be declared successful and receive their Certificate of Practice.

The AIBE 21 consists of a multiple-choice question format covering various legal subjects. Each correct answer carries one mark, and there is no penalty for incorrect answers. The total duration and number of questions are set by the Bar Council of India, and the final answer key provides the correct options for all sets (A, B, C, and D).

The objection submission process required a fee of ₹500 per objection, which is refundable if the challenge is upheld by the Bar Council of India. No other application fees are applicable for the answer key download process.
