The NLIU-Khaitan & Co. Certificate Course on Corporate Laws held in collaboration with one of India’s leading law firms, Khaitan & Co. The course has had seven editions as of 2024 which is a testament to the Centre’s long-standing association with the firm. It provides participants with a comprehensive overview of the Mergers and Acquisitions practice and gives them a more detailed perspective of the same.
The course spans across two days with about six sessions and discusses deal structures and the typical lifespan of a deal. A unique aspect of the course that makes it stand out from the rest is the negotiation exercise carried out towards the end of the course. The exercise is based on a draft agreement and focuses on real-world negotiations in Mergers and Acquisitions practice. Students who participate particularly well in the course are rewarded with internships in the firm.
The 7th edition of the course was held from the 20-21st April 2024 and concluded with a campus engagement session. This edition saw a record number of internships being offered to participants.
