Date: 2nd – 3rd May, 2015
Venue: The International Training Centre, National Law School of India University, Bangalore

Since the enactment of the Competition Act in 2002, the competition regime in India has witnessed several interesting developments. Despite the emergence of a vibrant jurisprudence however, the law remains far from lucid. In light of this, the 8th NLSIR Symposium hopes to assess the development of the law and bring some clarity for practitioners and academics alike.

Day One focuses on the core aspects of anti-competitive agreements and abuse of dominance. Day Two focuses on emerging issues and the dialogue between competition law and other regimes.

Confirmed Speakers for the Symposium include Mr. P.K. Singh, Prof. Rahul Singh, Mr. Rajat Sethi, Mr. H.S. “Bobby” Chandhoke, Mr. Murali Neelkantan, Ms Vaishali Sharma, Mr. J Sai Deepak, Dr S.K. Murthy, Mr. Paramjeet Berwal, Mr Karan Singh Chandioke, Dr. K.D. Singh and Mr. Arjun Krishnan.
