Which practices in your firm do you see growing in the next 12 months? What are the drivers behind them?

Considering the way, the economy is moving globally and the huge opportunities that India presents, coupled with the stand of the Government to make India a serious destination for investment, we have seen a large number of initiatives recently in the economic and judicial framework in the country.

This has resulted in the explosion of practice areas which are built on the convergence of economics and business. For instance, litigation in complex matters in areas such as Competition/ Anti-Trust, Environment and Company matters, Insolvency laws along with Policy audits and stability Predictions, Merger & Acquisitions and Corporate Compliance. We would also be expecting a big growth in the field of International Arbitration. After the introduction of the new Arbitration and Conciliation (Amendment) Act 2015, the arbitration scenario of India has drastically changed. The recent amendments and developments in this sphere has increased the confidence of parties to have more and more international arbitrations seated in India.

Simultaneously, on the business front, with some of the initiatives such as Digital India, Start-up India, Smart Cities, Artificial Intelligence, Future sciences etc. would cut across spectrums such as cyber space, environment, mines & minerals, infrastructure, Projects, defence, and media, there are very exciting times ahead in the domain and again an understanding of the business side of affairs and policy formulation is going to be critical.
