13th IUU Moot Court Competition, 2026

Students of a three-year or five-year LL.B. at a recognised Indian law college or university; LL.M. students may also participate. Teams of up to three — two mooters and one researcher. Fee Rs 3,000 per team including GST, paid to the university account by NEFT, IMPS or UPI, with proof emailed by 12 November 2026. Soft-copy memorials due 17 November; five hard-copy sets of each side's memorial due 20 November. A researcher's test is compulsory, and participants must carry institutional ID.

A commercial arbitration problem with a technology edge: an alleged defect in an electric-vehicle control system, raising whether a Section 9 interim application survives the constitution of the tribunal when Section 17 is available, challenges to an arbitrator who stays on after the tribunal rejects the challenge, preservation of software records, and recall losses against a limitation-of-liability clause. Prize pool Rs 53,000, with separate best-mooter awards for men and women. Everything happens across two days, 20-21 November.
