Final Call for Fee Payment of AIBE 20; Complete the Transaction

Meta Description: Attention Law Aspirants! Today, October 29, 2025, is the absolute last date for online fee payment for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE) 20 (XX). Registration closes on October 28, but payment can be made one day later. Failure to complete the fee payment by this deadline will lead to the cancellation of your application for the November 30, 2025, exam. Secure your Certificate of Practice (COP) by paying the requisite fee (₹3,500 for General/OBC; ₹2,500 for SC/ST) immediately via online mode. Do not miss this crucial step.

October 29, 2025, is the final, non-extendable deadline for the online fee payment for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE) 20 (XX), conducted by the Bar Council of India (BCI). While the registration window for the AIBE 20 (XX) formally closed on October 28, the BCI has provided a final 24-hour window for candidates who have successfully registered to complete their payment. Clearing the AIBE is mandatory to obtain the Certificate of Practice (COP), which is the legal license required to appear before courts and tribunals across the country. Aspirants are urgently advised to complete the online transaction immediately to ensure their application is successfully processed for the examination scheduled for November 30, 2025.

​\mathbf{AIBE} XX Fee Structure and Payment Gateway Essentials

​The examination fee varies based on the candidate's category. It is a mandatory, non-refundable step that finalizes the online application process. Without successful fee submission, the application, even if registered, will be deemed incomplete and subsequently rejected.

• ​Category-wise Application Fee (Excluding Transaction Charges): 
  • ​General/OBC Candidates: The required fee is ₹3,500 (Rupees Three Thousand Five Hundred Only).
  • ​SC/ST and Physically Disabled (PWD) Candidates: The concessional fee is ₹2,500 (Rupees Two Thousand Five Hundred Only).
• ​Mandatory Payment Mode: The fee must be paid exclusively through the online mode via the official AIBE portal: 
  • ​Candidates can use Debit Card, Credit Card, or Net Banking facilities to complete the payment transaction.
  • ​It is essential to download and keep the Payment Confirmation Receipt after a successful transaction for future reference and as proof of payment.
• ​Crucial Caveat - Non-Refundable Fee: The BCI strictly maintains a non-refundable fee policy. Candidates must ensure they meet all the AIBE eligibility criteria—including having an LLB degree and being enrolled with a State Bar Council—before making the payment, as rejection of the application due to ineligibility will not warrant a refund.

​Key Dates in the AIBE 20 (XX) Timeline
