Updated: 3 hours ago
By Parikshit Khanna, founder of Digital Training Jet | Updated 6 November 2026
A practical Copilot programme for your team
Relevant training experience: Parikshit Khanna delivered a Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat workshop for Delhi Duty Free in September 2026. He delivered AI and Copilot training for CP PLUS in October 2026.
Plan a tailored workshop around contracts, policies and compliance reviews, approved Microsoft 365 access and the outputs your people need to review. Share the audience, priorities and preferred format for a proposal.
Legal and compliance teams in India are being asked to use Microsoft 365 Copilot on contracts, policies, circulars and board papers, without exposing privileged material or letting an unverified sentence reach a client or regulator. This guide sets out practical Copilot workflows for in house legal, compliance and company secretarial teams, and how Parikshit Khanna trains them.

Parikshit Khanna founded Digital Training Jet in 2020, and its programmes have reached 3,50,000+ professionals. The training is independent and practitioner-led; it is not a Microsoft course and no Microsoft partnership is implied.
Quick answer
Start with Copilot Chat and the Copilot licences you already have, practise on redacted or sample documents, and agree a written team rule on what may go into a prompt. Every output that leaves the team is checked by a lawyer or compliance owner against the source. Nothing on this page is legal advice.
Recent Copilot work by Parikshit Khanna (August to November 2026)
Digital Training Jet programmes have reached 3,50,000+ professionals since 2020. The newest Copilot work, each delivered or scheduled personally by Parikshit Khanna:
Franklin Templeton India (live online), 5 November 2026: an organisation-wide Unlocking the Power of AI session on Microsoft Teams. Staff already have Copilot on their office systems, so Copilot came first: four applications (meeting notes to minutes and action owners, email and document drafting, spreadsheet formulas and commentary, presentation planning), plus ChatGPT and Gemini. Participants received an Excel practice workbook, a 60 prompt pair practice library, the 34 slide deck and 30 days of support.
Elofic Industries, Faridabad, scheduled for 14 November 2026: a full-day onsite AI workshop built on Microsoft Copilot, which staff use through Teams, for the export, marketing and leadership teams. Topics set by the client include prompting, datasets, customer pitches from catalogues, RFQ and negotiation emails, workflow automation, a monthly export market review in Excel and enterprise-safe use.
BT E-Serv India (British Telecom), Gurugram, 6 August 2026: a hybrid workshop for the Legal, Compliance and Company Secretariat teams that included a Copilot transfer demo, showing how the same prompting habits carry into Microsoft 365 Copilot.
RG Group, Noida, September 2026: advice to the directors on AI licensing in a Microsoft 365 environment, comparing Microsoft 365 Copilot Business with the Claude Team plan and Anthropic's Claude for Microsoft 365 add-in.
For legal and compliance teams, the BT E-Serv session is the closest match: the same verification habits carried from one assistant into Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Six Copilot workflows legal and compliance teams can practise
Contract comparison in Word: compare two sample drafts and list changed clauses for a lawyer to review. Check that every change is traced to a clause number.
Circular digest in Copilot Chat: turn a new regulatory circular into obligations, owners and deadlines. Check that each obligation points to the paragraph it comes from.
Policy gap list: compare an internal privacy notice with a DPDP checklist your counsel has approved. Counsel confirms each gap before it is logged.
Minutes in Teams: draft minutes and action owners from a practice transcript. The chair confirms decisions, and suggestions are never recorded as decisions.
Replies in Outlook: draft a plain-language answer to a business team from an approved policy, with no commitment beyond what the policy says.
Board and committee notes: first drafts in Word or PowerPoint from approved facts, with every statement traced to a source document.
A prompt to practise
Using only the attached sample circular, list each obligation in a table with columns for obligation, paragraph reference, owner and deadline. Write 'not stated' where the circular is silent. Do not add interpretation; put questions for counsel in a separate list.
Rules to agree before the first session
Which Copilot experience each person uses (Copilot Chat or a full Microsoft 365 Copilot licence) and which files it can reach.
Privileged and client material stays out of practice prompts; use redacted or sample documents.
No citation, case name or section number leaves the team without a check against the source.
A named owner signs off every output that goes to a client, regulator or board.
What is new in Microsoft 365 Copilot (November 2026)
Copilot Chat limits: from 2 November 2026 for organisations with 2,000 or fewer Microsoft 365 seats, and from 9 November 2026 for larger ones, Microsoft applies fair-use limits to more Copilot Chat features for users without a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence. Copilot Chat itself stays included in Microsoft 365.
Licensing from 1 December 2026: new Copilot offers replace the add-on offers for new Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Business purchases at the same prices, and usage-based billing is on by default for new Copilot Business subscriptions bought through CSP partners.
Prices: Microsoft 365 Copilot (enterprise) lists at $30 per user per month, and Copilot Business at $21 per user per month since 1 July 2026 for organisations up to 300 seats. Both need a qualifying Microsoft 365 base licence. Indian prices vary by reseller and GST, so confirm a current quote.
In the apps: Copilot Notebooks are now Copilot Workspaces, the Copilot app home puts Chat and Cowork side by side, Word, Excel and PowerPoint get a refreshed Copilot design, and PowerPoint gets a new model for better layouts.
Agents and admin: Autopilot is rolling out to the Frontier programme under Agent 365 governance, reusable skills are rolling out, admins get an agents usage report, and Copilot Search can prioritise up to 100 authoritative SharePoint sites.
For legal and compliance teams: Microsoft Purview can now retain Copilot memories, so retention and eDiscovery policies should cover them. Check SharePoint and Teams permissions for oversharing before rollout. This is general information, not legal advice.
Sources for these updates are listed at the end of this page. Features roll out in stages and depend on your licence and region.
Training formats
Leadership briefing: about two hours for the general counsel, chief compliance officer and company secretary.
Team workshop: half day or full day on the six workflows above, onsite in Delhi NCR and other Indian cities, or live online.
Follow-up clinic: a review of real use after 30 days, and an update to the team rule.

Microsoft Copilot training in India: how the options compare
There are four main ways to learn Microsoft Copilot in India. The right one depends on whether you need a certificate for one person or real results for a whole team.
Option | Format | Best for | Tailored to your team's own work? |
Parikshit Khanna, Digital Training Jet | Onsite across India or live online, 1 to 5 days | Teams that want Copilot working on their own reports, mail, meetings and Excel files | Yes. Built around your department tasks, licences and data rules |
Microsoft Learn (free) | Self paced modules and learning paths | Individuals starting with Copilot Chat | No. Generic exercises |
Certification course providers, for example The Knowledge Academy and Multisoft Systems | Instructor led classroom or live online, Microsoft course outlines | IT admins and staff who want a course certificate | Partly. Follows a fixed Microsoft syllabus |
Online platforms such as Udemy, Coursera and LinkedIn Learning | Recorded video | Self learners on a budget | No |
Provider examples were checked on each provider's own website on Monday 9 November 2026. We have not attended their courses, so compare the current syllabus, trainer and fees directly before you decide.
What Microsoft Copilot costs and includes in India (checked Monday 9 November 2026)
Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat is available at no additional cost for work accounts (Microsoft Entra) with an eligible Microsoft 365 subscription. Many teams already have it and do not use it.
Microsoft 365 Copilot, which works inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams with your work data, is a paid add on. Its list price in India is ₹2,495 per user per month on annual billing, GST extra, as shown by Microsoft partners.
Microsoft 365 Copilot Business is for organisations with up to 300 users. Its standard price is US$21 per user per month, and partners in India quote from about ₹1,745 per user per month on annual billing.
Microsoft Learn has free Copilot learning paths. They are a good warm up before a hands on workshop.

Illustrative Copilot practice: Identify evidence gaps
01 SCENARIO — A fictional compliance checklist has an owner for retention but no documented approval date. This is a fictional learning example, not a client case study.
02 TRY THE PROMPT — Create an evidence checklist, preserving the named owner and marking the approval date as missing; cite the supplied document.
03 HUMAN REVIEW — The compliance owner verifies every source and decides what action is required; no automatic filing or approval is assumed.
04 CHECK ACCESS — Copilot features vary by product, account, licence and tenant settings. Use synthetic or organisation-approved information.

Frequently asked questions
Is this Microsoft's own training?
No. It is independent, practitioner-led training. Free self-paced material is available on Microsoft Learn.
Can Copilot give legal advice?
No. Copilot drafts and organises; a qualified lawyer decides. Every lab is built around checking output against the source.
Do the labs use our real documents?
Only redacted or sample documents, unless your policy and approvals allow otherwise.
Do we need Microsoft 365 Copilot licences?
Copilot Chat works with eligible Microsoft 365 work accounts, with fair-use limits for unlicensed users from November 2026. Copilot inside Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams and PowerPoint needs a Microsoft 365 Copilot or Copilot Business licence. The session is mapped to what you have.
