St Xavier’s University Kolkata opens XMCC moot court registrations
St. Xavier's University, Kolkata (SXUK) has opened registrations for the Xavier Moot Court Competition 2026 (XMCC'26), to be held 29 to 31 October. The competition is centred on Foreign Investment Law and invites teams from law schools across India. The event is organised by the Xavier Law School's Moot Court Society, which previously ran XavJudice (2023 to 2025), Sculpture (2022 and 2025), and XavAequitas (2024).
Khaitan & Co. is the title partner, Sinha & Co. is the event partner. Associate title partners are MCO Legals, Sharma & Sharma Advocates & Legal Consultants LLP, and Upadhyay Solicitors & Co. SXUK was established on 17 acres of land at New Town, granted by the West Bengal government after Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee proposed upgrading the college to a university in 2012.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Xavier Law School has opened registrations for its new national moot court competition, XMCC'26, focused on foreign investment law. The event is a third major inter-collegiate initiative by the Moot Court Society, joining XavAequitas (2024) and the Surana & Surana technology law moot (2026). The competition runs 29 to 31 October, giving teams roughly two and a half weeks to prepare. The list of four partner law firms, Khaitan & Co., Sinha & Co., MCO Legals, Sharma & Sharma, and Upadhyay Solicitors, signals serious industry backing for a first-edition event. The university was established in 2012 after a proposal by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, and was granted 17 acres of land by the state government.
