In March 2023, she received approval from IIM Calcutta for enrolment in its Executive Programme in Business Management in Corporate Law. The course consists of participants, form which sixty percent are from non-legal backgrounds, and the rest have expertise with more than 25 years of experience. This diverse group has enhanced everyone’s learning experience. E-courts: Need of an Era Traditional court sessions are witnessing a change now as there has been a need for online courts after the deadly pandemic when people were not allowed to step out of their houses. The legal system in India is adopting online hearings and ensuring the safety of court staff and litigants. This change inspired Nupur to start her virtual solo office and conduct the hearings online. The majority of her meetings are conducted electronically, and with this, she can effectively and quickly address the doubts of clientele. This initiative is beneficial as it saves both the travelling time of lawyers and clients. “My office- related costs decreased as a consequence of this,” asserts Nupur happily. Later in 2019, Nupur decided to focus on preparing for the Union Public Services Examination. Unfortunately, the attempts were not successful; however, these two attempts helped enhance her thought process. She furthered her career by restarting her legal career as the Legal Head of a Private Limited Company. With this experience in hand, Nupur decided to start on her own and establish her independent practice. Not just this, she focused on dispute resolution, arbitration, and family law. In addition, she implored the Parliament to pass legislation governing mediation and grant the final agreement the same legal standing as an award in an arbitration process. She affirms that this decision would make the Mediation legally binding for all parties involved resulting in successful processes. Moreover, Nupur invests in helping the careers of aspiring professionals. She shares an incident that inspired her to help them academically and provide appropriate data and legal materials. “When I was pursuing a Master’s in Law, we had no access to any guides or study material. With work, it was extremely difficult to research the study material in the library. So, I recently signed a contract with Write Order Publications to publish LL.M. textbooks and guides on my behalf. I hope this will facilitate pursuing a master’s degree in law for professionals.” Moving Towards Practical Solutions In the coming days, staying innovative, active and quick is requisite. Moreover, instead of hiring for permanent positions, the new gig economy demands employees on a contract basis. In the legal space also, hiring a lawyer on a contract basis is more practical and cost-effective. In-house lawyers make about Rs 12–13 lakhs per year; on the contrary, lawyers on contract cut the company cost by 40%- 45%. Survival of the Fittest Juggling a heavy workload with ongoing professional development is an issue for many busy legal practitioners. “Many people also view professional development as a burden they have to complete rather than a flexible endeavour that might advance their lives and professions,” says Nupur. In this scenario, staying ahead of the curve is difficult and still, Nupur managed to pursue new things in her life.

Users can then be emailed immediately, daily, or weekly with a ‘feed’ of items of interest,” informs Nupur. This is beneficial for the company as hiring lawyers on a contract basis is a more economical option. Nupur admits that this approach has increased the professional's efficiency, efficacy, and productivity. It has also decreased the use of resources like office space, training, and other benefits. Along with the independent practice, Nupur is the legal head of a private limited company that works on a contract basis. With this, the company has successfully decreased expenses and improved its work culture.
