Next Steps After Passing
Passing AIBE XXI is the final step for the Certificate of Practice (CoP). The CoP is mandatory for legal practice. It enables graduates to argue cases in all Indian courts. The CoP status will be digitally verified on the AIBESCOPE mobile app. This typically takes three to four weeks after results are declared. Physical certificates will be issued later. These will come from respective State Bar Councils. This process can take three to five months.
If You Don't Pass
Candidates who do not pass AIBE XXI face no penalties. They can register for the next exam cycle. Registration for future AIBE exams remains open.
