A key capital markets mandate saw the firm advise a consortium of six book-running lead managers, including Kotak Mahindra Capital and JP Morgan, on the landmark IPO of Vishal Mega Mart. The offering was one of the largest in India's retail sector, marking a milestone for organised retail with its pan-India network of 611 stores.
In a separate landmark transaction, the firm advised on the complex corporate restructuring of Groww, a major fintech startup, to shift its domicile from the US to India through a National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) approved amalgamation. This "reverse flip" which involved converting the US holding company into its Indian subsidiary, was a significant milestone, establishing Groww as one of the largest startups to successfully relocate its legal base to India.
