cuz its NLS. All of the BA subjects at NLS are far more theoretical or technical than is necessary for a law graduate but it also helps you to undertake interdisciplinary research better.
Undergrads in any law school in India barely know how to do any disciplinary/ empirical research. That’s what law school is for. You learn econ well enough maybe you get to assist a prof with competition law or law and poverty type paper. Maybe you make co author . Then maybe after graduating you publish a sole authored paper.
The value of studying economics properly is not in just one CV point.
Fwiw, some of the stuff written by undergrads at nls is actually quite good. Most of it so far has been Doctrinal research but it’s nothing to sneer at.
it’s actually not. There’s a lot more to it than what they teach in undergrad. It just seems that way to you cause you’re young and starting your education.

Means how to use unfair means more effectively? LOL.
STEM and economics like social sciences do have scope for deep research.
