Sid Nair moves from Bangalore to Delhi, transactions to training

Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas (SAM) private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) partner Siddharth Nair will remain with the firm but has moved from Bangalore to Delhi in a primarily non-fee-earning role, we understand.

We had reported that Nair had handed in his resignation in May of last year.

However, it is understood that after talks with the firm he has decided to remain in the firm but in a new location and role.

While remaining a partner, in Delhi he will be in an administrative role including duties in training and development.

We have reached out to Nair and SAM several times but have not received any comment or confirmation.

Nair had been one of the busiest transactional partners in 2018-19 at SAM, having acted on at least 14 deals primarily in the VC space.

This had put him in seventh place of our 2018-19 financial year corporate dealmakers.

Without Mr. Nair, does SAM & Co. have any good lawyers in Bangalore?

They should gracefully close that office, especially considering how far they lag behind Cyril Amarchand in Bangalore.

I heard that he doesn't grow his beard- he just ordered his head hair to march south.

Sid. Nair did not move to Delhi. He stayed in bangalore, earth rotated on different axis altogether, and Delhi moved under him.

This is why you should not integrate a Tier 3 Firm with a Tier 1 Firm. They cannot handle Tier 1 Targets. Pity that it has lasted 3 years.

Yes, integration of different groups of people is an abomination. We must work to keep different kinds of people segregated. Keep up the good work, my friend!

No, he doesn't. Because Kattappa did not actually kill Bahubali. Siddharth Nair did! The beard helped pulled off the impersonation!

How many lawyers and partners does SAM have in Bangalore after his exit?

Has his team also left?

I was opposite him in a transaction, Siddharth Nair is a good lawyer with an excellent standing amongst PE and VC funds.

Is he being trolled or does he have an army of sycophants? Both seem sad some how.
