They register as a private limited company with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) to appear legitimate.
MCA registration simply means the business is legally incorporated — it does not certify that they are a licensed overseas recruitment agent. Many victims assume “MCA registered” equals “government-approved for foreign recruitment,” which is false.
2) Legal agreements designed to protect them, not you
They make clients sign service agreements that only promise “visa assistance”, never an actual job.
The agreement is written in such a way that if you later accuse them of fraud, they can point to the fine print: “We only provide visa facilitation; we do not guarantee employment.”
This lets them avoid legal trouble while still giving the false impression that they’re a job placement service.
3) Job search “after” visa stamping
They claim that employers will be revealed and interviews arranged only after the visa is stamped — but in reality, there’s no employer.
4) No employer names in ads or listings
On job portals, they post vague “Overseas job opportunities” without naming companies because there is no actual job offer in hand.
The posting’s only purpose is to capture leads for their visa service, not to match applicants to real openings.
5) The profit is in the “processing”
Their business model depends entirely on collecting large “processing fees” upfront. Even if you never travel or get employed, they have fulfilled what’s written in their contract (e.g., “visa assistance service”), so you have little legal recourse.
They exploit legal loopholes and a person needs to verify whether an agency actually has legitimate overseas recruitment authority. That way, you can see where these schemes hide behind “legal” appearances.
In short, they operate in a gray zone — morally fraudulent but legally insulated — by making sure their marketing is misleading but their paperwork is technically accurate.
I have internship at a tier-I lined up in October in the Capital Markets team. How can I make the most of it? And How should I prepare for the same? Thank You :P
From what you've said, the rest of the profile seems like a very strong fit. Try to get at least 1-2 high quality publications before applying (if possible) otherwise just the nail the SOPs and LORs and you should get in. SOP and LORs can really make or break it. Also apply to LSE or other good UK unis as a fallback. Best of Luck! I hope you you get in :)
And no hate, Saraf does not usually select from applcations from theor central email. They seem to predominantly take interns from NLUs or JGLS through TPO (correct if I am wrong)

I had been through 2 interviews. First one blew it like typical textbook way. 2nd one was something strange - I mailed them regarding delay ( took 8-9 days after interview) and somehow got instant rejection.
We can establish local shelter homes and therein these dogs can be kept. This way we can take care of these dogs as well.
Time and again, there are discussions on this platform about NLUs being nationalized. This is the latest one going on...
https://www.legallyindia.com/convos/topic/447571-Institute-of-National-Importance-for-NLU-s
This is what state NLUs have to give up, should they choose the nationalization path. The questions are:
> How likely are those who benefit from the domicile quota system willing to give up this backdoor entry scheme?
> How likely are respective state governments willing to cede control of their state NLUs?
Therefore, any discussion on the nationalization of state NLUs is a fantasy, a complete non-starter.
So, litigation is better.

Is there no firm that pays lesser but offers say weekends or 1 day of the weekend off?
Is it true that you will be completely alienated from your family/spouse/children if you go into corporate?
