About the Opportunity

Corporate law is one of the most dynamic and rewarding areas of legal practice today — and at the centre of it all lies Due Diligence.

Every merger, acquisition, or investment deal depends on how effectively lawyers assess a company’s legal health. From reviewing contracts and shareholding patterns to identifying compliance issues and hidden liabilities, due diligence defines how a deal is negotiated and closed.

This 1-Day Bootcamp is designed to introduce participants to the real-world process of due diligence through case studies, hands-on analysis, and practical guidance from an experienced corporate lawyer.

You’ll not only learn the theory but also see it in action — including a live breakdown of Elon Musk’s $44B Twitter acquisition and Kotak Mahindra Bank’s takeover of Sonata Finance Pvt. Ltd.

By the end of the session, participants will have a clear understanding of:

• What due diligence means in practice
• How it fits into corporate transactions
• What skills law firms and companies look for in deal lawyers

Who Should Attend

• Law students (2nd year onwards) interested in corporate law
• Recent graduates and young professionals seeking specialization in M&A, PE, or VC
