Challenging transactions..
NHPC and Oil India which were both Government transactions, required several years to prepare these companies and work on documents which would have fair disclosure on these companies. They were extremely challenging and complex. We also advised on India’s first issuance of NCD plus warrants issuance through the QIP route by HDFC. We were also instrumental in assisting companies such as Suzlon and Subex to restructure their foreign currency convertible bonds, which were the firsts of its kind.
Managing Talent and work?
Whilst we believe our experience and depth of our team is sufficient to cope with the demands of a recovering market, exciting and experienced talent who can add value to our existing strength would always be welcome. In a nutshell, our focus is predominately on organic growth and to a lesser extent on inorganic growth.
There was a trend, a couple of years ago of these lawyers moving to international law firms. The financial turmoil of the last year has seen a number of Indian lawyers return to the fold. Your comments on this trend across the Indian legal market in general.
We have also experienced a trend of lawyers trained by us or otherwise seeking to move back to Amarchand after having spent a few years in international law firms. We believe that our experience is reflective of the trend being experienced by the legal industry as a whole. Anecdotally, the number of Indian lawyers seeking to move back from US and UK is far greater in portion from those in jurisdictions such as Singapore and Hong Kong and we believe this trend will continue in short term. After all there is no place like home.

- 4. "Cyril is a superb lawyer. He may have his own views on foreign law firms. Not something that we need to consider while talking about his legal skills.". Barry, London
- 5. "I think I like Vandana Shroff a lot more than Cyril. She is better to work with than Cyril.". Big Fan Of Vandana, London
- 6. "Cyril Shroff is a great lawyer. I can see critcs of amarchand are the people who either didnt get into amarchand or plain jealous. So Mr. License Raj, i dont know in which fora did Cyri Shroff not want foreign law firms.

"2009 might also be the year that foreign law firms might be allowed in the country, what do you think it is going to be? Mody: I don’t think in 2009 they will be allowed into the country and I think and I am not as opposed as Shroff is. Shroff: It is not the question of being opposed but it’s a question of having a framework where independent firms survive and see and we have clarified this many times and it’s not a question of opposition for the sake of opposition. For this thing to happen, it’s going to take longer."". @ License Raj, Delhi
- 9. "What a bozo! Obviously your boss Cyril will not confess to being at the forefront of the anti-liberalisation lobby. What's important is that Zia Mody says about Cyril what we all know. And anyway, Cyril does not say that he is not opposed... quite to the contrary! It shows how little English you know.
