The language - "of whom 1 are women". KNM & Partners has a total of 13 partners, of whom 1 are women. It has 6 salaried partners, 7 equity partners, and 6 senior equity partners. - Maths and logic would say 19 partners - 6 salaried, 7 equity and 6 senior equity. Also wtf is equity and senior equity. You can have varying amounts of equity.

KNM does pretty good real estate and corporate M&A work. Maybe not the headline making kind of work but it’s decent enough.

Its may be because they didnt publicised their work but in Delhi NCR or North India, the credibility of KNM in real estate market is equivalent to AZB and Luthra.
