you dont get inter-group set-off if you are not appearing in all the papers in one go. So you will have to get 50% marks in each of the group. So in First group marks should be equal or more than 200 (including marks in law) and equal or more than 150 in second group.

Yes you will get the benefit of excess mark you will get in first group including your law marks. Total marks of both groups including your law marks must be equal or more than 50% in aggregate, irrespective of what marks you got in 1st group or in 2nd group. All the best for you exams.
as per the regulation 37C(8) & 37B(6), if you are having exemption in 1 subject & you will get 40% marks in each exam & in aggregate both group total in 50% then you will consider as you have passed in both the groups.
For example. if you get 60 marks in law paper, then it will be exempt in next attempt, but when you are appearing in your next attempt & u secure 250 marks in 1st group including your law marks & in 2nd group you secure 150 marks (assumed that you have secured more than or equal to 40% in each exam)then total comes to 400, which is 50% in aggregate. In this case candidate will be declared passed in both the groups.
Hope my example will be sufficient to clear your all doubts.
It is a classical case of inserting words into a law.
You may please refer regulation 37B(6)/37C(8). No where does any of these sub-regulations refer to the word "groups".
The regulations are pretty clear, the set-off is available only if the student clears both the groups in one-sitting.
The regulations 37B(6)/37C(8) applies only to the particular group in which exemption has been secured.
For your easy reference, the text is reproduced here:
37B(6) - "Notwithstanding anything contained in subregulations (1) to (5), a candidate who fails in one or more papers comprised in a group but secures a minimum of 60 per cent of the marks in any paper or papers of that group shall be eligible to appear at any one or more of the immediately next three following examinations in the paper or papers in which he secured less than 60 per cent marks. He shall be declared to have passed in that group if he secures at one sitting a minimum of 40 per cent marks in each of such papers and a minimum of 50 per cent of the total marks of all the papers of that group including the paper or papers in which he had secured a minimum of 60 per cent marks in the earlier examination referred to above. He shall not be eligible for any further exemption in the remaining paper(s) of that group until he has exhausted the exemption already granted to him in that group.]"

Yes Nikhil you are right that set off is available in case you clear in one sitting only. I have never said if you clear in different sitting then also set off is also available.

Dear Ankit, regulation 37B(6)/37C(8) comes into picture only where you have failed to clear all the papers in one go but got exemption. Once you are out of giving all the papers in one go, inter-group set-off goes out of window.
And if you see thats what the querist is asking for. And the answer is, no. Aashi, you wont get set-off. In the group 1, you need to score 200 or more marks including the marks in law and more than 150 marks in group 2.
