The verdict
Worth considering
DSNLU’s LL.M. is a steal at ₹1.2L for a UGC-recognized, NIRF-ranked law school. The 1-year format is perfect if you want to specialize without a long break. However, the 25% placement rate and modest average salary mean this is best treated as a stepping stone—ideal for judiciary prep, academia, or research, rather than a guaranteed corporate placement factory.
