We believe that modern businesses and commerce require bespoke legal advice tailored to meet their specific banking needs and to advance nuanced commercial objectives. The extensive and comprehensive legal expertise of our Partners positions us to craft customized solutions that seamlessly import commercial strategies from one funding structure into another.

Our expertise spans a broad spectrum of funding structures, including one-of-a-kind project financing, acquisition finance, structured finance, securitization, bonds and debentures, working capital arrangements, factoring, and more. The team is also well-versed in cross-border financing, including external commercial borrowings and trade finance products.

The banking and finance team brings a wealth of experience from prior roles in-house at leading private and public sector banks, corporate houses in India, debt funds, and private credit lenders—alongside independent experience as commercial and civil litigators. Many are active members of esteemed industry bodies and committees that play a vital role in shaping law, policy, and best practices in finance, both in India and internationally.
