The Bar Council of India informed the Delhi High Court that AIBE XXI will be held in June 2026, while the qualifying exam for Indian nationals with foreign law degrees is scheduled for December this year. The Court noted that such graduates may begin provisional practice for two years before clearing AIBE.
The Delhi High Court questioned the Bar Council of India for not conducting the qualifying exam for Indian law graduates with foreign degrees before the AIBE, calling the delay unfair. Justice Sachin Datta said, “You have created this problem; you only find a solution.”
