For long term interns/paralegals, not exactly sure but its either fixed (if you've come through college placement cell) or might be dependent on performance.
In either case, the stipend isn't anything to write home about. Your cost of living in Mumbai (if you're from outstation) will far exceed any stipend they give lol.
All the best though!

And dont poorer disabled people who do not buy mercs for themselves live in houses across the country? It might have been more accurate to say he had not found something that was disabled friendly that was to his taste/ status. But there are certainly houses that are disabled friendly that he could have afforded.
It most obviously was not a fair ask.

Is this their new standard procedure or something?
Also, I had forwarded my CV through one of the head guys there!?
To practise in Delhi, Is it compulsory to be registered in DBA (Delhi Bar Asssociation) or DHCBA (Delhi High Court Bar Association) or SCBA (Supreme Court Bar Association) ?
Or Can I practise without enrolling in DBA, DHCBA etc ?
In a good team (competition/ b&f/ top corp) an associate will easily bill 60-80 lakhs (realised). This comes out to 4-6 lakhs of bill share in a year.
Taking the lower end at 4 lakhs, an A1 compensation comes out as:
14.4L (fixed) + 4L (bill share) + 3.5L (bonus) = 22L
Contrast this with SAM/CAM/AZB which pay A1s between 21-23L, this is bang in middle.
Any money you make over and above the assumed 4L bill share will take you way above market standards. Know at least a couple of A1s last year who made 8/9L in bill share. You decide if that is market standard.
Now some people will still come and cry that bill share is a scam, for that reason I would like to clarify that low billing teams/disputes teams would probably see a bill share of 1/2L. So tread with caution.
Take an informed decision - happy to address any specifics. Cheers!
MNLU’s only plus is that being in Mumbai gives you the leeway to intern at more places throughout the year (provided you have good contacts to get into firms/chambers, college won’t help you much).
Corporate law firms are shifting towards hiring through internships instead of campus placements.
Any leads would be highly highly appreciated.
This is a fact based honest feedback and not meant with any negative approach. Let’s hope the moderators recognise the need to get the facts through to viewers when posts are generated for self adverts
2. Year of Enrolment: Late 2021 (December, to be precise)
3. Actual practice commenced in June, 2022
4. Nature/ types of litigation handled: Property- Revenue matters, some Co-operative Society work, Testamentary matters
My practice is not going anywhere, and before I lose any more time, it would be a smarter decision to go in-house. I plan to start applying by January, 2026.
Those who have moved from litigation to in-house, please advise on the following aspects
A. Must-knows for a successful in-house interviews
B. Nature of in-house work
C. How should I use this time, i.e., August-December, 2025, to prepare better for the interviews?
D. Will I be treated as a fresher at any company/ concern I join?
E. How much truth can be found in the 'in-house = stability' notion?
All the Best. Do well.
How does this impact meals at NLU canteens? For example, are Gujarat and Haryana veg-only? I know that Jindal only serves veg food, for instance. And what about beef and pork? Any NLU serving that?
