Great stuff. - folks like her are breaking new territory and it's encouraging to see the spread and depth of the legal sector. Chipping away at the larger firms, will teach the larger firms a lesson in staying competitive and client service.

Larger firms wont do 50 crore deals as the issuing enitity wont be able to afford their fees - there is a market for these kind of transactions and its good to see ppl like srishti strike out on their own.

Then who is heading capital market practice of D&D? No One! What about ELP, Mumbai and AZB, Delhi. They are building up Capital Market Team...

What's going on at ELP? I hear they are ramping up. They used to be bigger and better than they are now.

There are three law firms called Veritas - one US, one Canadian and one in Singapore. Isn't it advisable to get a less common name?

Maybe the Veritas name will give some securitas. Truth makes you secure and also lends you some gravitas. Like Lexygen gives you oxygen.

It's always great to see women start something new. Women entrepreneurs as such are still lesser, in law schools, and among fresh graduates as well. :) Congratulations!

Lower Parel. All is good but there had to be a better name. Veritas is shared by too many.
