Our Banking & Finance Practice addresses the full range of banking & finance matters including complex and nuanced transactional and regulatory issues in a manner that is adapted to our clients’ requirements.
The Firm advises on conventional financing as well as innovative structured products.
We handle both Indian Rupee and foreign currency-denominated financing for major banks
and market-leading borrowers.
Our experience includes advising on external commercial borrowings, refinancing, syndicated loans and club deals, reverse factoring, debt issuances, project finance, asset finance, corporate finance, equipment financing and leasing, bank branch establishment, and bankruptcy and restructuring (including under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016).
Our team’s experience ranges from handling complex and diverse cross-border financing
deals to restructuring and reorganising non-performing assets for banks and financial institutions and their onward sale to Asset Reconstruction Companies or other financial institutions. We advise and represent leading international and domestic banks and NBFCs in their recovery and ancillary actions before relevant courts and tribunals. We act for leading banks, non-banking financial companies, and financial institutions, both international and domestic, as well as leaders in their field of borrowers across a range of sectors including entertainment, logistics, natural resources, ports, infrastructure, and telecommunications.
