NLU Delhi, Mentblue Launch Certificate Course on Capital Market Transactions: IPOs, QIPs, Rights & Hybrids - Register Now!

India's equity capital markets have seen unprecedented activity, with IPO volumes surging, new-age technology listings reshaping the market, and retail participation reaching record levels. Law firms expect their associates to navigate the full IPO lifecycle, from structuring and diligence to the offer document, book-building, pricing and post-listing compliance. Clients no longer pay for learning curves. Day-one readiness in capital markets practice is expected.

To address this, National Law University, Delhi (NLU Delhi), through its Centre for Regulatory Studies (CRS), has partnered with Mentblue to launch a Certificate Course on Capital Market Transactions: Law & Practice (IPOs, QIPs, Rights & Hybrids), part of The Practice Series, a joint initiative designed to take participants through a capital markets transaction the way it is actually executed inside Tier 1 ECM teams.

Why This Course?

• Practitioner-led faculty: Partners from S&R Associates, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas, Trilegal, and JSA Advocates & Solicitors. The lawyers who structure, execute and close capital markets transactions for a living, not just teach about them.

• End-to-end transaction view: From structuring the offer to listing and post-listing compliance, the entire IPO lifecycle taught in the sequence a deal actually unfolds.

• Applied drafting assignments: Two comprehensive assignments built around real Indian capital markets transactions, spanning the full IPO lifecycle, not sanitised hypotheticals.

• Document library: Offer document precedents, transaction agreements, comfort letters, disclosure templates and transaction checklists.

• NLU Delhi certification: The course is supervised by the Centre for Regulatory Studies, NLU Delhi, and the certificate is issued by the University.

• Flexible format: Weekend-only live sessions with six-month recording access, built for law students and working professionals alike.
