About GNLUMSIL

Since its establishment in 2015, GNLUMSIL has garnered praise for providing a platform to students to be able to simulate challenges faced by the Indian capital markets, and at the same time, offering them a stimulating opportunity for research and learning in the domain of Indian securities and investment regulation.
