LegalEdge’s Delhi and Gurugram centres produce AIR 2, 7, 8, and 9 as law consolidates its position as a high stakes career choice
Delhi and Gurugram moved into the national spotlight following the declaration of CLAT 2026 results, with students from the region delivering one of the strongest city wise performances in the country. As competition intensifies and law continues to emerge as a first choice career for high achieving students, the results underline the growing role of the NCR belt in shaping India’s next generation of legal professionals.
According to officially declared results, students trained at LegalEdge centres in Delhi and Gurugram together secured four All India Ranks within the national top ten. Candidates from Delhi achieved AIR 2 and AIR 8, while students from Gurugram secured AIR 7 and AIR 9, placing the region among the most consistent performers in this year’s Common Law Admission Test.
The Gurugram centre also produced Haryana Topper 1 and Haryana Topper 2, corresponding to AIR 7 and AIR 9, highlighting the depth of preparation emerging from the region. In total, LegalEdge centres across Delhi and Gurugram accounted for 14 ranks within the top 100. With counselling currently underway, more than 300 selections into National Law Universities are expected from these two cities alone.
Among the top performers were Parv Jain, who secured AIR 2, and Argh Jain, who achieved AIR 8. The twin brothers, both mentored at the LegalEdge Delhi centre, followed a long term preparation route by enrolling in a structured two year classroom programme immediately after Class 10. Their approach reflects a growing trend among serious law aspirants who are choosing early academic planning and consistency over short preparation cycles.
Reflecting on their journey, the students pointed to disciplined classroom learning, regular mock analysis, and close mentor interaction as decisive factors in their performance. Their parents also highlighted the value of a process led academic roadmap, noting that structured preparation helped build confidence and emotional maturity alongside academic outcomes.
Commenting on the results, Vikaas Wahi, Director of LegalEdge Delhi and Gurugram, said that the focus of the centres has remained on the student journey rather than ranks alone. He noted that the academic environment combines structure, mentorship, emotional support, and consistency, allowing students to perform with confidence. According to him, a student to selection ratio of nearly four to one reflects a sustained, student first approach rather than a numbers driven mindset.
Other high ranking students from the region echoed similar sentiments. AIR 7 Gauransh Vats, Haryana Topper 1, credited focused one to one mentoring and mock strategy discussions for his steady progress throughout the preparation cycle. AIR 9 Manvi Yadav, Haryana Topper 2, highlighted the role of a supportive academic environment and regular guidance in maintaining exam readiness.
The regional performance mirrors broader national trends in legal education. Over 92,000 candidates registered for CLAT 2026, with nearly 75,000 appearing for the undergraduate examination, marking a 17 percent increase in participation over previous years. With limited seats available across National Law Universities, the data reflects law’s consolidation as a highly competitive and aspirational career choice.
At the national level, LegalEdge’s CLAT 2026 outcomes also showed consistent results across centres, including multiple ranks in the top ten, several state toppers, and more than 50 ranks within the top 100. The results reinforce the role of structured, classroom led preparation and long term mentoring in an increasingly high stakes entrance landscape.
