Exclusive: Naik Naik & Co has opened a Delhi office and promoted two partners to equity partnership and two senior associates to salaried partner.

The firm has procured a Delhi office in the Neeti Bagh area headed up by Delhi advocate Harshvardhan Jha, who joined the firm last month after having been working with the firm independently for more than one year said managing partner Ameet Naik.

The nearly 5,000 square foot Delhi office was taken on in November of last year but has now become fully operational, he added.

Furthermore, Mumbai salaried partners Anuja Jhunjhunwala and Madhu Gadodia have signed up to Naik Naik & Co’s partnership deed as equity partners effective 1 April, which will include a fixed equity remuneration component and an upside, explained Naik.

Jhunjhunwala focuses on retail, real estate and litigation and graduated from GJ Advani Law College Mumbai around 2002.

Gadodia specialises in technology, media and entertainment law and dispute resolution out of the firm’s Andheri office that was started less than a year ago. She graduated from Jitendra Chohan College of Law Mumbai in 2002.

She said: “Even to become a partner is amazing; to become an equity partner gets you a sense of ownership coupled with a sense of responsibility that motivates you to step into a larger role.”
