Vinayaka Mission's Law School (VMLS) is being mentored by O.P. Jindal Global University (an Institution of Eminence) and Jindal Global Law School under an institutional mentorship agreement.
Vinayaka Mission’s Research Foundation (VMRF) is an innovative and pioneering University that offers a multi-disciplinary learning experience.
With the founding vision of creating the law school of the future, VMLS admitted its first cohort of students in 2021. Mentorship from India’s finest law school, Jindal Global Law School, and a committed team of full-time faculty members, many of whom are trained in globally renowned institutions, have resulted in pedagogic innovations at VMLS that make it a frontrunner in equipping learners with the skills, knowledge, exposure, and specializations required for professional success in the Artificial Intelligence age.
Vinayaka Mission’s Law School is unique not only in its vision – excellence through inclusivity, and a steadfast emphasis on digital futures and climate transitions – but also its governance model. We are the first Indian legal education institution to be formally mentored by another private law school, arguably India’s finest at that – the Jindal Global Law School, and Jindal Global University, an institution of eminence. The active Mentoring Committee created under this one-of-its-kind mentorship agreement consists of eminent senior lawyers and distinguished academics, who steer VMLS towards its goals and vision.

A professional law degree has become increasingly appealing to students since India’s liberalization in the early 90s, driven by the opening of domestic markets, the rise in global trade, and the complexities of the new economic order. This spurred demand for smart, articulate, and competent professionals to lead in areas like mergers and acquisitions, private equity, venture capital investments, offshore tax structures, and complex commercial transactions. Consequently, national law schools and five-year programs gained prominence as law firms and companies sought to hire new graduates with attractive pay packages.
