STATEMENT OF PURPOSE 

Learning new things has always got me excited and gradually as my cognitive abilities broadened, I was intrigued with the study of Law. It is the only subject that comprehensively encompasses all the aspects of mankind. In this age of globalization, when there is a huge rise in inter-country commercial activities, it has become essential to have appropriate laws in place. Similarly, the corporate world has been witnessing drastic changes in the past few years with advanced business methods replacing age-old practices.

Following this intricate pattern at a gradual pace, I felt I have the drive to be a part of this challenging and dynamic sector by infusing acumen of corporate law. With this view, I aspire to pursue my LLM at King's College of London. Academically, I have consistently obtained excellent marks throughout my school days. I secured a CGPA of 9.4 in 10th and 94% in HSC in Commerce. Growing up in a family dominated by engineers, I wanted to pursue a different career line and was extremely inclined towards legal studies from a young age.
