Role reversals? Usually Trilegal acts for Blackstone and CAM for Piramal

That was my first reaction. Nice to see Shishir's name after a while (the Harvey specter of Indian law firms)

Obviously - if Piramal is engaged in a bidding war with Adani for DHFL, he’s not going to use CAM for anything.

Finally Harsh got a deal in his name post joining Trilegal. Hope he gets more listed deals going forward.

Read some where Mr Roroff ( may be my spelling in wrong) , an ex senior member from Gerresheimer ( German Glass co) is now joining Piramal. This person dragged Gerresheimer India in huge losses during his tenure. Piramal can find more capable senior level execs form India.

Now THIS is a real deal, rather than routine IPO-work/low-rent VC stuff. Good going to all; as expected, Law School flag flying high here with Shishir and Sridhar!
