Ratnadeep Roychowdhury, who had been promoted to partner at AZB & Partners Mumbai in 2015 after joining from erstwhile Amarchand Mangaldas in 2011, is set to join Actis Capital in-house in a senior role - possibly India general counsel (GC) - reported Bar & Bench.

The 2007 NUJS Kolkata graduate told Bar & Bench: “Working at AZB has been a wonderful experience which I will always cherish. I am very grateful to Zia and Rajendra, and the rest of the firm for all the support and encouragement that I have received.”

We have reached out to Roychowdhury and AZB Mumbai managing partner Zia Mody for comment.
