Jyoti, I believe you meant AILET when you say Silver exam. Also since you have tagged both CLAT and AILET, I would be answering with those two exams in mind.

So the answer is no, CLAT and AILET are two different exams although both are conducted for admissions in the law institutes of India.

While CLAT is an all India level exam conducted by the 21 NLUs or National Law Universities for more than 2400 seats, AILET is conducted only by NLU Delhi for around 73 seats in BA LLB and 20 seats in LLM. Also, CLAT score is accepted by many other private colleges also. That said, AILET is considered to be tougher than CLAT since the competition is also higher due less number of seats.

The good thing though is that there is no negative marking in AILET whereas 0.25 marks will be deducted for every wrong answer in CLAT. You can solve previous years' papers of both CLAT and AILET to get an idea of the types of questions asked and which suits you better. On the basis of that, you can select which exam you want to go with.
