The 3 year LLB is not for Corp jobs tbh. They don't have a course in IP, they study important subjects like Tax and Labour laws after their Day Zero so they fail to compete with their 5-year LLB counterparts. Sudhir did force the firms to shortlist students from 3-year LLB but most of them got rejected after group discussion or interview.
Your question is if ‘any’ student was placed, not if ‘every’ student was. The answer to the former question is yes. People have got law firm jobs and PSUs. Others have gotten admission for higher studies. Others are still looking, presumably.
I'm from one of the junior batches at NLS 3 year LLB. A couple of people, around 10-15 got placements. Not everyone who wanted a corp job has gotten one. Hope this clarifies things for you.
The 2026 LLB batch has had far more Tier 1 internships and opportunities than the first batch, and some have exceeded in Moot Court Competitions and ADR competitions as well, when compared to the first batch. This will only grow in the subsequent batches. Of course the numbers will look low compared to BALLB because of the sheer size of the incoming BALLB batches. The higher number of internships will surely translate into better placements for the 2026 batch, even if its far lesser than BALLB.
There is a lot of misinformation on LI regarding this, i'm guessing from BALLB kids who are still not able to come to terms that BALLB is not the only relevant program at NLS now. However, one thing is true, that the LLB program has far more people, compared to BALLB, who don't want a corporate job. And the placement numbers will always show that.
Also, i'd just say that mostly, the interactions between BALLB and LLB batches have been amicable and good. However, there are always some BALLB students who love to hate on the LLB program or spread blatant misinformation on the internet, maybe to get some false sense of superiority or simply out of boredom.
