Gaurav Singhi, who had resigned from Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas’ partnership last month, will be joining Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas in early June as a corporate partner, according to two sources.

We have reached out to Singhi and Cyril Amarchand managing partner Cyril Shroff for comment earlier today.

Singhi had joined Shardul Amarchand in 2015 from J Sagar Associates (JSA), where he was a salaried partner, together with JSA partner Akshay Chudasama, who is now Shardul Amarchand’s Mumbai managing partner.

Chudasama declined to comment.

Singhi is a 2006 NUJS Kolkata graduate who began his career at Trilegal, followed by two-and-a-half years at Phoneix Legal in 2011, Wadia Ghandy in 2011 where he made partner in 2014, and JSA in 2014.

Singhi had left Shardul Amarchand around the same time as Gurgaon partner Saurav Kumar, who has since joined IndusLaw as a partner.

This is getting boring now. Can we have some updates on the entry of foreign law firms?

I think Gaurav has a good strategy. He has moved around a lot but made all the right moves. Loyalty and sticking around is very overrated especially when top Indian law firms are run by one man (and woman!) autocrats and where sycophancy runs works than merit. Good on you Gaurav!

How is CAM different from the other places that he has been - rolling stone gathers no moss

This rolling stone prefers to gather dosh. Can't make the scene if you don't have the green. You savy!

Gaurav can do a benchmarking study in a few years of all big law firms.
