Regulatory & Sector-Specific

Competition and antitrust before the CCI, insurance law, environmental and ESG matters, immigration, and advisory across infrastructure, media, healthcare, aviation and other regulated sectors.

Overview

Many businesses operate under sector-specific regulatory regimes on top of general corporate and commercial law. The firm advises on competition law, insurance, environmental compliance and immigration, and separately supports clients across a range of regulated industries where sector knowledge shapes the advice as much as the underlying legal principle.

What this covers

For example: Advising on whether a proposed acquisition crosses the thresholds requiring notification to the Competition Commission of India.

Advisory and dispute resolution on insurance policy interpretation, claim repudiation and regulatory compliance under IRDAI regulations, for both policyholders and insurers.
