For the 12th consecutive year, our India Group has been acknowledged as one of the top international law firms for India-related work in 2020 and described as "an invaluable ally on India-related matters that have cross-border connections and work streams” by the Indian Business Law Journal (IBLJ). Now in its 14th year of publication, the IBLJ released the results of its annual survey this month, which draws on an analysis of more than 600 law firms over a 12-month period.  

The most notable transactions over the past 12 months were highlighted, including representing AustralianSuper on its US$1 billion investment in India’s National Investment and Infrastructure Fund and advising Lupin on the sale of its stake in its Japanese subsidiary, Kyowa Pharmaceutical Industry. 

There was also recognition for Chris Parsons in particular. Chris was mentioned for his “visibility, personality and overwhelming passion for India”. 

Roddy Martin commented: “Our focus on and commitment to India is acknowledged by our clients and key contacts in the market and it's always pleasing to be recognised among the top international firms for our India-related work."
