LawFoyer proudly celebrates the remarkable achievement of Madhura Vedang, Pragya Mehta, and Himanshu Gove, students of Maharashtra National Law University, Mumbai, for securing the position of Semi Finalists and ranking 3rd overall at the prestigious 9th GNLU Securities and Investment Law Moot, 2026 organised by Gujarat National Law University, Gandhinagar.
Competing at a national level moot court competition that attracts some of the finest legal minds from across the country, this talented team demonstrated exceptional research, advocacy skills, and strategic thinking. The Securities and Investment Law Moot is known for its complex problem statements that require a deep understanding of financial regulations, securities law frameworks, and contemporary legal developments. To emerge as Semi Finalists among such strong competition is truly commendable.
For Madhura, who is currently pursuing her 2nd year of BA LLB (Hons), this journey was both challenging and rewarding. Along with her teammates Pragya and Himanshu, she invested countless hours in research, drafting memorials, refining arguments, and participating in rigorous practice rounds. Their dedication reflected not just in their oral advocacy but also in the clarity and structure of their legal reasoning.
What makes this achievement even more special is the team’s approach towards learning. As Madhura shared in her personal reflection, this experience pushed her beyond memorising legal provisions. It helped her understand how legal principles operate in real life disputes. That shift from theoretical learning to practical application is what truly defines a successful mooter. Mooting is not merely about speaking confidently in a courtroom setting. It is about understanding the law deeply, analysing facts critically, and presenting arguments with precision and composure.
The team’s success highlights the strong mooting culture at Maharashtra National Law University, Mumbai. Competitions like the GNLU Securities and Investment Law Moot test students on emerging and technical areas of law. Preparing for such competitions requires not only academic excellence but also teamwork, time management, and resilience under pressure. Madhura, Pragya, and Himanshu exemplified all these qualities.
Securing the 3rd rank overall at a national competition hosted by Gujarat National Law University, Gandhinagar, is no small feat. It is a testament to their consistent effort, intellectual curiosity, and ability to collaborate effectively as a team. Each member played a vital role, whether it was researching intricate points of securities regulation, drafting persuasive written submissions, or delivering compelling oral arguments before esteemed judges.
In her message to aspiring law students, Madhura shared a valuable insight: focus on understanding, not just speaking. Good mooting comes from clear thinking, not fancy arguments. This simple yet powerful advice captures the essence of effective advocacy. Law is not about complicated language. It is about clarity, logic, and conviction.
At LawFoyer’s Achievers’ Archive, we believe that such milestones deserve to be celebrated widely. Achievements like these inspire other students to step out of their comfort zones, participate in competitions, and embrace the process of growth. Success in moot court competitions is not only about trophies and rankings. It builds confidence, sharpens analytical ability, and prepares students for future legal careers.
We congratulate Madhura Vedang, Pragya Mehta, and Himanshu Gove on this outstanding accomplishment. Their journey at the 9th GNLU Securities and Investment Law Moot, 2026 stands as a shining example of what dedication, teamwork, and genuine understanding of the law can achieve.
