In a recent strategic move, the Kolkata-based firm S. Jalan & Co. brought in a diversified level of change across its talent pool. From the leadership levels to core execution levels, the firm has again announced a very confident and aggressive approach towards elevating its people.
To begin with, Sourav Ghosh, who was erstwhile an equity Partner for sixteen years, has now been also given the responsibility of being the Managing Partner of the firm. As a result, Sourav will be overlooking the critical dynamics of the firm in terms of the current capabilities, diversification scopes in terms of new practice area development, and the firm’s vision.
Sourav’s practice commenced in commercial dispute resolution and litigation. Presently his expertise extends to advising on corporate transactions, corporate documentation, mining leases, joint ventures, prevention of fraud, enforcement of restrictive covenants, bank guarantee matters, Infrastructure Arbitrations, regulatory and disciplinary proceedings, outsourcing, strategic alliances, franchising, e-commerce, etc.
Next in line, a rainmaker for long, Samrat Sengupta, is now an Equity Partner, 7th in the row to have been entrusted with the equity holding in the firm. He has extensive experience in Arbitration before Tribunals and Commercial Litigations in different High Courts and the Supreme Court of India. In addition, he is involved in commercial dispute resolutions, including litigation, Infrastructure arbitration and mediation, regulatory work, company matters, enforcement of restrictive covenants, and bank guarantee matters.
Another attractive elevation in the current announcement of the firm is the appointment of its Chief Executive Officer, Subhomoy Chakraborty, who is also an Associate Partner in the firm. Subhomoy will closely watch the firm’s brand and people growth strategy and other factors like technology as a changemaker in the firm’s modus operandi etc. In addition, Subhomoy possesses litigation experience of over two decades across various domains.
