In this edition, the competition returns in a physical format, welcoming teams from law schools across the country. The competition is structured in a way that ensures rigorous selection, beginning with a memorial qualification round leading to the selection of the top 20 teams in the oral rounds. In the oral rounds held on the magnificent campus of MNLU Nagpur, the selected teams argue their cases before a panel of prominent judges who possess expertise in the field of technology law.
