About Us
Memo Pundits is India’s first Mooting School for law students, founded in 2014 by Anant Gupta and Rachnendra Tripathi. It is a unique platform which imparts knowledge in the field of mooting. What sets it apart is its teaching methodology, which is far from traditional Indian online courses. All online courses are based on the Harvard University’s “Active Learning” model, which makes sure that learning is always fun!
For its courses and mentorship program, Memo Pundits engages professionals from Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford and other Top-tier NLUs and lawyers from international firms like Linklaters and HSF, and national firms like Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas, J. Sagar Associates and Khaitan & Co.
Memo Pundits is also the official partner of the coveted Mooting Premier League, India’s biggest mooting championship run by Legally India.
