HSA Advocates has hired Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas (CAM) Mumbai partner Saurya Bhattacharya as a corporate partner.
While based in Mumbai, the 2007 NUJS Kolkata graduate will also be responsible for leading the firm’s Kolkata corporate practice, “leveraging his existing experience in Kolkata and the associated markets”, said the firm.
He had begun his career at the erstwhile Amarchand Mangaldas in Mumbai, getting promoted to partner at CAM in 2017.
Bhattacharya advises domestic and foreign clients, including on domestic and cross border corporate deals, according to HSA.
The sectors he focuses on include education, food and agriculture, consumer, and healthcare and pharma.
Managing partner Hemant Sahai commented: “We are very happy to welcome Saurya to HSA’s corporate M&A and commercial team, which continues to be one of the strong practice offerings of the firm.
“In addition to his pureplay transactional and advisory practice, Saurya will add an important dimension to and anchor some of our existing and upcoming strategic initiatives centred around specific industry sectors and select international jurisdictions,” he said.
Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas managing partner Cyril Shroff commented about Bhattacharya’s departure: “We will always wish him well.”
