NEW DELHI, FEB 19, 2026: THE Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs (IICA) has renewed its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad, for five more years to further advance academic collaboration, research, publications, capacity building, awareness, and advocacy.

The MoU was formally signed by Gyaneshwar Kumar Singh, Director General and Chief Executive Officer of IICA, and Prof. Srikrishna Deva Rao, Vice-Chancellor of NALSAR University of Law. The ceremony was attended by distinguished dignitaries including Prof. (Dr.) Nimushakavi Vasanthi, Registrar, NALSAR; Prof. V. Kesava Rao, Director, Centre for Corporate and Competition Laws, NALSAR; Dr. Pyla Narayana Rao, Associate Professor, IICA, among others.

The collaboration will also facilitate faculty and student exchanges, joint research and publications, expert advisory and consultancy services, and the organization of workshops, seminars, and conferences. Both institutions will actively pursue joint training and research initiatives in a spirit of mutual cooperation.

A key highlight of this collaboration has been the successful execution of the two-year, full-time residential LL.M. programme in Insolvency and Bankruptcy Laws. Over three batches, the programme has trained 138 students and has been widely appreciated by industry stakeholders for its academic rigor and practical relevance. The first year of the programme is conducted at NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad, while the second year is hosted at IICA, New Delhi, offering students a rich blend of academic excellence and industry exposure.

The renewal of this MoU reaffirms the shared commitment of IICA and NALSAR to promote excellence in legal and corporate education while contributing to the development of skilled professionals equipped to address emerging challenges in the sector.
