Why did you choose to study at CCLS?

CCLS had and continues to have one of the best Competition Law programs headed by Prof Dabbah. I had a wonderful learning experience, which helps me to date in terms of the wealth of knowledge I gained.

What is your favourite memory of being a CCLS student?

I think it is difficult to pin-point a memory. But academically, I think the participation during class and of course, the training and coaching of a QMUL team that were runners up at the Herbert Smith Freehills Competition Law Moot held at King’s College London in 2016. This was definitely a highlight.

What does being a member of the CCLS community mean to you? How did your CCLS experience contribute to your career?

It is certainly a challenging task. When I talk about and promote Competition Law in India, I now also represent the QMUL community which has taught me the law. It is definitely a proud moment when I am recognised by leading world legal publishers for Competition Law, especially when pointed out that I’m a QMUL alumnus.

What do you think prospective students should study at CCLS?

This is an intensely personal choice for each individual. However, for many of the students who have asked me about studying at QMUL, I have personally advised them about International Commercial Arbitration, Commercial and Corporate Laws and Competition Law.

What is your current role and place of work?

I am a partner at a law firm in India, with a practice spread across different streams, focussing on Competition Law.
