Workshop in Capital Markets & Securities Laws

I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of the Securities Law Master Workshop offered by Lex Familia India during my time in law school. It was one of the most enriching learning experiences outside of the regular academic curriculum.

The course offered a strong conceptual foundation and practical insights into capital markets, which not only deepened my understanding of the subject but also helped me develop a genuine interest in the field. The structured content, combined with real-world examples and case studies, made it both engaging and impactful. It infact helped me during my internships and made me stood out amongst others during my job as well.

What truly stood out was the learning environment at LFI – one that encouraged curiosity, clarity, and practical application. It provided the perfect platform to grow beyond textbook knowledge and gain valuable exposure to the nuances of corporate and securities law.

Narayan Sir’s mentorship was a cornerstone of this experience.

Workshop in Capital Markets & Securities Laws

The Lex Familia India has played a very important role in my journey in securities and corporate law. I am especially thankful to Mr. Narayan Kedia for his constant support and guidance. He helped me not just with academics but also with career advice, and his teaching of the Companies Act was clear and practical. I truly believe that without his support, I wouldn’t have been able to secure placement at a top law firm.

The course was very informative and completely different from what is usually taught in colleges. It focused on real understanding, not just completing the syllabus. Every session covered important legal concepts and case laws in detail.

One of the best parts about The Lex Familia India is the chance to learn directly from industry experts. This really helped me understand what law firms look for in interns and young lawyers. If you’re interested in securities or corporate law and want to learn from someone truly passionate about teaching, I highly recommend their workshops.

shaped my journey.”

I’m thrilled to share that I have recently secured a pre-placement offer with the Capital Markets team at JSA. This achievement has been significantly shaped by my journey with Lex Familia India (LFI), which began over a year and three months ago. Looking back, joining LFI has been one of the most transformative decisions I’ve made in both my academic and professional journey.

The Master Workshop on Capital Markets and Securities Law – curated and mentored by Mr. Narayan Kedia – has played a pivotal role in shaping my understanding of the capital markets space. What truly sets this workshop apart is its holistic and well-structured approach. It starts with foundational concepts in company law, then gradually delves into the intricacies of SEBI regulations, including ICDR and LODR, and ultimately focuses on the practical skill of drafting key chapters of a Draft Red Herring Prospectus.

What I found most impactful was the workshop’s extended format – it spans over a year, allowing for deeper engagement with both the subject matter and the mentor. This thoughtful structure ensures that concepts aren’t rushed but are internalized over time. Each task and assignment is carefully designed to simulate real-world work, making the learning experience not only rigorous but also deeply practical.

I am especially grateful to Narayan sir, whose mentorship has been nothing short of extraordinary. His unwavering support – whether in preparing for interviews, navigating internships, or clarifying complex legal concepts – has had a profound impact on my professional development. His dedication to his students is evident in the time, energy, and sincerity he brings to every interaction.

Thanks to the Master Workshop and Narayan sir’s guidance, I entered my internships with clarity, confidence, and competence – and that, I believe, made all the difference.

Workshop in Capital Markets & Securities Laws

My journey with Lex Familia India began a year ago — and looking back, it’s been nothing short of transformative. LFI didn’t just teach me the nuances of securities law; it also helped me grow in teamwork, communication, and real-world legal thinking.

The Capital Markets course was especially impactful. We explored each legal aspect in depth, and the assignments mirrored actual law firm work. That exposure empowered me to write papers that were later published in leading law journals.

More importantly, the skills I gained played a key role during my internship — and helped me secure a Pre-Placement Offer with Khaitan & Co.

LFI isn’t just a course. It’s where you prepare to thrive in the profession.

Pranjal Shorey – J Sagar Associates

Master Workshop in Securities and Corporate Laws

Lex Familia India, and Mr. Narayan Kedia, have a lot of valuable insights to provide to aspiring lawyers – but perhaps the most fundamental, and hardest to teach, is perseverance and determination. With five years of growing with LFI, I can say confidently today that I have developed the mindset and skills to approach legal work with confidence, precision, and resilience.

Beyond the promised curriculum, one of the most valuable lessons I learned was attention to detail—not just in legal research or drafting, but in how to structure my thinking and break down complex issues into clear, manageable steps. Whether tackling a difficult legal question or preparing for high-stakes situations like interviews, I was encouraged to push forward, refine my approach, and trust my ability to work through the problem.

LFI does not promise easy results or a set formula for success. Instead, it prepares you in a way that lasts—helping you build endurance, discipline, and a willingness to take on difficult tasks. The legal profession demands hard work, but with the right preparation, those challenges become opportunities to grow.

The constant support from LFI has shaped the way I approach my work, and I know that anyone who engages with them will come away stronger, sharper, and better prepared for whatever comes next.

I opted for an elective on Securities Regulations in my college and it was then that I developed interest in studying Capital Markets. However, the elective in college only briefly touched infinitesimal aspects of vast penumbra of public offerings.

Piyush Kaushal, a friend of mine, who too benefitted from their workshops and has an in-depth knowledge in this space recommended me to join LFI and there workshops.
Besides extremely informative and interactive sessions, it is the efforts of Mr. Kedia that he invests in each and every student which is applaudable.

In legal profession, one rarely finds mentors who work to teach and train freshers. In the initial days of the workshop every student enrolled was spoon fed. By spoon feeding, I in no ways mean that we are not tested analytically. The workshop is highly technical, and it requires active participation from our end.

I was a student whose basics were weak, it is Mr. Kedia efforts that I learnt the nuances of Capital Markets with great ease.

His efforts were not limited to teach me the academic part of the practice area. He went out of the way and helped me to grab an internship at Saraf and Partners. The internship experience at Saraf and Partners was one of a kind as everyone at the firm was amazed to see the understanding of the subject and skills of the interns who were associated with LFI. I am heartful and glad that I joined LFI.

The Securities Law and Capital Markets workshop conducted by Lex Familia India under the guidance and mentorship of Narayan sir is a uniquely structured course where the emphasis is not only on theoretical knowledge but also on practical learning. The sessions conducted by Narayan sir were informative and thoughtfully structured ensuring a continuous and uninterrupted flow between different concepts. An important aspect of this course that enabled me to understand concepts thoroughly was Narayan sir’s emphasis on peer-to-peer learning, which ensured participation in sessions and informative discussions with peers. As Narayan sir focuses on imparting practical knowledge, we were required to undertake several practical assignments which are essentially tasks an individual would undertake as an Associate in the capital markets practice area.

In addition to regular sessions, we were given the opportunity to interact and learn various concepts from industry experts who would provide us with insights of the practice area basis their several years of experience. These external sessions also acted as a platform to network and engage with such industry experts.

I have been very fortunate to have had a mentor like Narayan sir who not only has a unique approach to learning but is available at all times to clarify any conceptual or personal doubts and provide immense support and guidance to all his students.

I am and will always be grateful for the support that LFI and Narayan sir have provided in shaping my career and helping me join the Capital Markets Team at Trilegal.

I was part of the first batch of LFI when Narayan sir started teaching during the pandemic. He is a patient teacher who dedicates a lot of time to his students. Even as a senior legal professional working full time, he manages to take out a few hours everyday to teach students and also spend time to learn more about non-legal subjects such as finance to ensure his students are equipped to understand the legal and commercial aspects of a transaction.

During my time as his student, he was extremely supportive and generous with his time. He helped me write a research paper which won at a well known college summit, suggested helpful changes to my CV, and vouched for me in internship applications. As a college student, there is nothing more that one can ask for. I hope for all of you to get a chance to take one of his courses at LFI, and your career will thank you for that opportunity.

Vibhasa – TWLS

Master Workshop in Securities and Corporate Laws

The courses at LFI were one of my most foundational experiences as a student. At LFI, I could explore the practical aspects of corporate law, which was not available in the traditional pedagogy of colleges.

If I had to describe it briefly, I would call it a crash course in becoming a transactions lawyer. However, this phrase would betray the effort my mentor Narayan Kedia made to impart all his knowledge, wisdom, and experience onto me.

It would betray the long, gruelling hours he undertook to ensure I came as close to perfection as possible. For him, it was never about doing the bare minimum; it was always about doing the utmost possible.

I have never seen him refuse to meet the sincerity of anyone willing to learn; if anything, I have only seen him go a step further. My recommendation to all students and young professionals who wish to pursue corporate law is to undertake the courses at LFI with all their hearts; whatever the outcome, I promise it will not be fruitless.

Also, the attitude or perception I had about legal space prior to enrolling for these workshops was completely different from reality. Apart from focusing on practical aspects, the mentors at LFI take efforts to make you understand reality and become cognizant of it and help you prepare well for it.

The courses and the mentorship offered by Lex Familia India have helped me streamline my legal profession tremendously. The courses have not only helped me build a solid knowledge base in Companies Law and Capital Markets but have also helped me secure a couple of tier-1 corporate internships (including AZB & Partners, Khaitan & Co. and J. Sagar Associates) on my own.

The best part about the courses/workshop is that all the sessions are quite interactive and we as law students are taught the actual work that we are supposed to do as an associate in the law firm (which I bet no law college teaches you). It’s been more than a year since I have associated myself with Lex Familia India and trust me it was the best decision that I have ever made in my entire life till date. Despite having busy schedules, Narayan Sir has always been there for me as my back-support and has stood by me through thick and thin. He has never let me give up and always kept motivating me and has made me realize that everything is possible to achieve if you are consistent and determinant.

I would like to tell all the interested students/professionals planning to join courses offered by Lex Familia India that it’s not just a course you will be doing to get an in-depth knowledge in the subject (+ certificate) but you’ll also be getting the 24/7 guidance, support and mentorship of the best mentor (legal professional) that anyone could wish to have. I have no words to express my gratitude to Narayan Sir for always being there for me. Nonetheless, I would like to thank him and give him 100% credit for all the success (a long way to go though) that I have achieved in this past one year.

The Master Workshop has profoundly impacted my professional development. From the outset, it was apparent that this course was meticulously designed to provide a comprehensive and immersive learning experience. The curriculum was robust, encompassing a wide array of topics essential for mastering corporate and securities law. However, what truly distinguished this workshop was the exceptional quality of the instructors. These experts, hailing from top-tier law firms, brought a wealth of practical knowledge and experience to the table, making each session highly relevant and engaging. Specifically, the workshop has provided a chance to personally interact with highly qualified and top-industry experts such as Narayan Sir—a rare opportunity for law students. Typically, as students, we rarely have access to professionals of such high seniority and extensive experience. However, this workshop bridged that gap, allowing us to establish personal connections and receive direct mentorship from leaders in the legal field. This level of interaction and the insights gained from these experts have been invaluable, offering perspectives and guidance that would be difficult to obtain elsewhere.

The workshop’s emphasis on interactive learning was particularly beneficial. The course was structured to facilitate active participation, allowing us to delve deeply into case studies and practical exercises. This approach enabled me to apply theoretical concepts in real-world scenarios, enhancing my analytical and problem-solving skills. Collaborative projects, such as drafting due diligence reports provided invaluable hands-on experience.

A key highlight of the workshop was the personalized attention and mentorship provided by the instructors, especially Narayan Sir. His unwavering commitment to student success was evident in his availability for consultations and his willingness to address both academic and professional queries. His guidance and personal connect was instrumental in boosting my confidence and ensuring that I maximized my learning potential.

Being a part of the LFI community further enriched my experience. LFI’s focus on continuous knowledge sharing and professional development was a significant advantage. Regular discussions on current legal trends and market developments kept us informed about the latest industry changes. Additionally, high quality peer interactions have helped me learn to work in teams and enhanced my understanding of the concepts taught in the sessions. Peer learning was vital in transforming my approach to learning and professional development, making me a more effective and confident team player.

Moreover, the workshop’s structured approach to career development was remarkable. The sessions on professional skills, such as effective communication, negotiation, and client management, were particularly enlightening. These skills are often overlooked in traditional academic settings but are crucial for a successful career in law. The practical tips and real-world examples shared by the instructors have significantly enhanced my ability to navigate complex legal landscapes and client interactions confidently.

Finally, the network and connections forged through the Master Workshop have been invaluable. Interacting with peers from diverse backgrounds and experiences has broadened my perspective and opened up new opportunities for collaboration and growth. The relationships built during the workshop have extended beyond the online sessions, creating a supportive professional network that I can rely on throughout my career. This sense of community and ongoing support is one of the most enduring benefits of the Master Workshop, ensuring that the learning and growth continue long after the course has ended.

In summary, the Master Workshop has been an exceptional journey of growth and learning. The blend of theoretical knowledge, practical application, and personalized mentorship has equipped me with the skills and confidence needed to excel in corporate and securities law. The enriching experiences and insights gained from this course have been invaluable, and I wholeheartedly recommend the Master Workshop to anyone seeking a transformative educational experience in the legal field.

Ritvik Mishra – Saraf and Partners

Master Workshop in Securities and Corporate Laws

My journey with LFI began during COVID, when I was in my third year of law school. At the time, I was constantly thinking about becoming a “Corporate Lawyer,” but I had little understanding of what that truly entailed. Taking the Capital Markets course not only solidified my foundation in company and securities law but also gave me a deep, practical insight into how the practice area operates. The course was invaluable in helping me build simple yet crucial habits, such as staying updated on legal developments and regularly reading commercial newspapers. These habits, which I cultivated during the course, played a significant role in easing my transition into the challenging corporate legal profession once I entered the workforce.

The classes at LFI offered a refreshing break from the “bookish” approach that law school often encourages. Instead, we were given the opportunity to see how the law truly applies to real-world transactions, and more importantly, the outcomes that arise from its correct (and incorrect) application. This course filled a crucial gap, providing practical experience that typically only comes much later in one’s career, once they’re working in a law firm.

Despite the challenges of managing a large class, Narayan Sir’s dedication to each student was exceptional. He made sure that every student received individual attention and walked away with valuable lessons. I am truly grateful for this experience, which has not only broadened my legal knowledge but has also better equipped me for my professional journey ahead

He mentored us on A0 work which gave me an edge to enter the industry. He has guided me personally on my interview preparation. Being a first generation lawyer, I was always intimidated by tier 1 practices, he mentored me on how to prepare and crack a job. He was always available for every student, this made us feel more connected to him considering his great experience and position in the industry. Today, whichever city and whichever tier 1 law firm it is, we would find an LFI alumni. His academy is not just for learning but also for connecting in capital markets practice.

Forever in our Memories...

Aaj Sikri

A young mind, full of dreams, dedication, and warmth. A cherished part of our Lex ‘Family’ who landed his dream job as an associate at Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas in the Capital Markets team immediately after his graduation. He met with an untimely accident. And with that, the world lost not just a legal professional, but a beautiful human being.

His passing shook us in ways words can’t describe. And it left us with one haunting realisation that life truly is uncertain. We plan, we chase, we hustle — but we forget to live.
In this world obsessed with success, prestige, and comparison — many of us lose ourselves. Many forget the meaning of life while being in the race of achieving something.
We push our bodies, ignore our mental health, forget our families, and sometimes, even our identities. We chase ideals that don’t reflect who we really are. And in trying to be someone else, we forget to just be.
To every young professional reading this — Pause. Breathe. Check in with yourself and your family and friends before it is too late.
If there’s one message Aaj’s life leaves us with, it’s this — Live today. Fully. Authentically. Joyfully.
Work hard, but don’t let work harden you. Strive, but don’t lose your smile. Dream big, but don’t stop living small moments. Life is short and long — both. And in the end, the only race worth running is the one that lets you sleep peacefully at night and smile effortlessly during the day.
We remember you today, Aaj. And through your memory, we send love, strength, and a soft reminder to all the young professionals out there.
Be kind to yourself. You matter more than your CV. Live — before life slips by.

When I started Lex Familia India, it was with a simple but powerful thought — to bridge the gap between what law students learn in classrooms and what the real world of corporate law firms expects from them. Over the last four years, this thought has turned into a vibrant reality, and I feel blessed to have been part of this journey.

Through LFI, I have had the privilege of mentoring and training more than a hundred students — bright, curious, and determined young minds who have gone on to secure opportunities at some of the most prestigious law firms and organizations. Watching students transform into confident lawyers ready to take on the challenges of capital markets, M&A, private equity, and beyond has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my professional life.

But LFI has never been just about legal training. For me, it has always been about creating a family. Along the way, I have shared countless conversations with students — not only about the law but also about life, career choices, stress, self-doubt, and resilience. Some of my most cherished moments have been those late-hour discussions where I could guide a student not just as a teacher, but as a mentor and friend.

This journey has been filled with love, compassion, and continuous learning. Every student I have taught has also taught me something valuable in return — about patience, about perseverance, and about the boundless potential of young people when given the right guidance.

Today, when I look back at LFI, I don’t just see an educational platform. I see a community — a family — built on trust, knowledge, and a shared dream of excellence. And I feel grateful for every student who has been a part of this journey. Together, we have proven that learning law can go far beyond books — it can shape careers, build character, and truly change lives.

Breaking into the corporate legal world can be overwhelming for young lawyers.

This is where Lex Familia India (LFI) makes a real difference. By bridging the gap between academic theory and real-world practice, LFI empowers aspiring lawyers with the skills, confidence, and industry insights required to excel in corporate law, securities law, capital markets, and M&A.

More than just educators, mentors at LFI serve as a “one-call-away, phone-a-friend” support system—always approachable, always ready to guide students through their journey.

When you start your career, you realise that theoretical knowledge, while crucial, only forms part of the equation in becoming a successful legal professional. With the competition amongst talent becoming more prominent, practical insights and hands-on training is what truly bridges the gap between academia and real-world application. It will accelerate your learning process and sharpen your ability to think critically and with certainty in high-pressure situations. I deeply resonate with LFI’s vision to prioritise practical training for the next generation of lawyers by bridging the gap between seasoned lawyers and talented students. Their journey has begun strong and I compliment LFI and Narayan for having the foresight to build this platform. Sustaining the good work will take the support and effort of not just their core team, but of seasoned peers to volunteer and contribute to sharpening our next generation of stalwarts.

As a peer, I am grateful to Narayan to put wheels to this project and create a community of students to whose growth we can contribute to- and as a friend, incredibly proud to see him make a deep impact on careers of many.
