Corporate

The Competition Act, 2002 governs mergers, cartel conduct, and abuse of market dominance in India, and the CCI has gotten considerably more active in recent years - merger notifications that would have cleared quietly a decade ago now draw real scrutiny. We help clients navigate that shift rather than get caught by it.

Corporate law is the unglamorous work that determines whether a company survives its own growth - proper incorporation, clean shareholder agreements, governance that holds up when a board disagrees. Most founders don't think about it until a dispute or a due diligence process forces the issue.

Every business relationship - with a vendor, a distributor, a client - eventually comes down to what the contract actually says, and a contract is only as good as the attention it got before both sides signed it. Most disputes we see stem from fine print nobody read closely enough, so that's where we spend our time.

A legal audit is a structured check for the gaps that don't show up until they've already caused a problem - an expired registration, a compliance filing missed two years ago, a contract clause nobody's reviewed since it was signed. We run these audits before they surface as a liability, not after.

Internal policies only work if someone can actually follow them - a POSH policy, a code of conduct, an ESG framework that reads like it was written for a compliance checklist rather than the people who have to use it. We draft these to be usable first and defensible second, because a policy nobody reads doesn't protect you either way.
