AIBE XXI Final Answer Key 2026 (OUT): Download Set A, B, C, D PDF; Result Expected July 15–18

BCI releases AIBE XXI final answer key for all four sets; result expected between July 15 and 18, 2026

The Bar Council of India (BCI) has released the AIBE XXI final answer key on July 10, 2026, for candidates who appeared in the All India Bar Examination held on June 7, 2026. The final key is common for all languages and has been issued separately for all four question paper sets – Set A, Set B, Set C and Set D – each carrying 100 questions.

AIBE XXI Final Answer Key: Key Highlights

BCI has revised two original questions by correcting the answers and accepting alternate options across all four sets. No question has been withdrawn in the final answer key, so the AIBE XXI passing marks remain unchanged. This is reflected in the released key itself, where a handful of questions across the sets carry more than one accepted answer:

• Set A: Question 2
• Set B: Question 75
• Set C: Question 84
• Set D: Question 91

Candidates who marked any of the accepted alternate options on these questions will be given credit.

How the Final Answer Key Was Prepared

The final key comes after BCI reviewed all objections raised by candidates against the provisional answer key, which was released on June 10, 2026, with the objection window closing on June 17, 2026. Since this key is now final, no further challenges will be entertained, and it will directly form the basis for preparing the AIBE XXI result.

AIBE XXI Result: What’s Next

The result is expected to be announced between July 15 and July 18, 2026</cite>, following the release of the final answer key. Candidates who clear the qualifying marks will become eligible to receive the Certificate of Practice (CoP) through their respective State Bar Councils, allowing them to independently practise law before courts and tribunals in India.

AIBE Answer Key in PDF

The AIBE XXI final answer key has been released only in PDF format, set-wise, on the official BCI website. There is no separate combined PDF for all sets – candidates must select their own question paper set (A, B, C, or D) to view and download the correct key.

Candidates are advised to download and save the PDF locally right after checking it, since the BCI portal tends to slow down under heavy traffic on answer key days.
