NLU Delhi (KLA Winner), NUJS (DM Harish Runners up), CNLU (D M Harish Best Memo), and ILS Pune (Surana Corporate Winner) were the biggest gainers at this mooting weekend.

After some weeks of catch-up for second-ranked NLU Jodhpur, NLU Delhi managed to extend its lead this weekend to 34 points, sitting at 122 points.

NUJS, meanwhile, leapt from eighth position last week to fifth now, at 68 points – just two behind Nalsar, and 7 behind NLSIU.
