Argus Partners has promoted four managing associates internally to non-equity partner level.

Banking and finance lawyer Aastha in Mumbai, litigation and real estate lawyer Kumar NJ in Bangalore, litigation lawyer Pooja Chakrabarti in Kolkata and infrastructure lawyer Shubha Karra in Mumbai were all promoted to non-equity partner.

Managing partner Krishnava Dutt said: “I wish them all the very best in their sojourn as partners of the Firm as they play an extremely critical role in the firms growth story.”

“We look forward to a healthy mix of organic consolidation of our home grown talent pool and lateral partnerships to play a vital role in our growth story,” he added.

Udwadia Udeshi & Argus, which was created by the merger of Argus Partners and Udwadia & Udeshi in 2012, had broken up one year ago, after several senior departures.

This is by far the only firm that more partners than all other fee earners combined. Call it a retention strategy and move along?

This firm is never in news for its deals. It always is some cover story, like the present one. Now that they have promoted these individuals to partnerships, should we not ask if they deserve the same respect as a partner from, lets say one of the SCAMs or AZB?
