We are trying to introduce a bottom-up approach to the scholarship on judicial decisions. The IBC judgments from the higher judiciary tend to attract most of the media and scholarly attention, and for good reason. But we believe that a more rigorous examination of the NCLT and NCLAT decisions could pre-emptively highlight tricky legal areas.
Therefore, IBC16 invites submissions from students for blog posts exclusively covering the NCLT and NCLAT orders/judgments from the months of July and August 2021. The authors are encouraged to explore topical theme(s) in insolvency law, through novel analysis of the judgment(s)/order(s) chosen.
Section X, IBC16’s judgment search portal, has got your case law research covered – the only place online where you can find and download any NCLT/NCLAT judgment — with just a click.
You can read the winning entry from the first edition here.
Students enrolled in an undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral program in any law school, legal professional training school, or executive programmes (CA, CS etcetera) are eligible to participate in this competition.
