The competition will take place on 20 and 21 November 2026. Teams will participate in memorial preparation and evaluation, a mandatory Researcher’s Test, and oral rounds comprising preliminary rounds, semi-finals and the final. The moot proposition concerns a commercial technology-supply dispute involving alleged defects in an electric-vehicle control system, arbitration, interim measures, arbitrator independence, disclosure of technical records, contractual termination and limitation of liability.

Eligibility

The competition is open to students pursuing a three-year or five-year LL.B. degree from a recognised law college or university in India. LL.M. students may also participate. Each team may have a maximum of three members: two mooters and one researcher. Participants must carry their college/university identity cards and follow the prescribed formal courtroom dress code.
