Anand Prasad. The firm is recognised for its corporate and M&A, private equity and restructuring and insolvency work. It has a focus on the technology sector.
Recent examples of the firm’s deal work include
advising
Happily Unmarried Marketing on its acquisition by VLCC. This mandate was challenging as it involved the
acquisition of
Ustraa through a combination of multiple transactions including a secondary buy-out and share swap arrangement between the parties.
In private equity, the firm advised
Aadhyatmik Technologies on its series seed CCPS fund raise. This mandate was challenging because it involved multiple investors with a specific set of investor rights.
