I have great pleasure in welcoming you to the website of the Centre for Post Graduate Legal Studies (CPGLS). The setting up of the CPGLS is an example of a truly remarkable achievement that the University has witnessed in the last few years and will foster teaching and research to provide a thorough knowledge of law to meet the challenges of global economy. Our LLM courses are specifically designed to help you progress in your legal career. We began our LLM programmes in 2010 and what our students have achieved in a short span is truly extraordinary.

I am also happy to share that we have started a new programme in Taxation which is primarily meant for professionals with working experience. We have also established a strategic collaboration with the Society of Indian Law Firms (SILF), which will bring together the expertise and experience of corporate lawyers across several Indian law firms for the benefit of the LLM programme.

We also welcome the inaugural batch of LLM programme in Taxation Law. I am delighted to share that some of our current and former LLM students have excelled in academic research and practice as evidenced by their publications in reputed journals, participation in prestigious conferences and placements with renowned organizations. I hope as a prospective LLM student you will draw inspiration from these achievements and work hard to realize your career goals. 

As a University that thrives on research excellence, I am happy to announce the launch of the PhD programme at the Jindal Global Law School Research and knowledge creation is critical for any university.
