PayTM was one of the largest IPOs of the time. And shoddy companies, almost every company on the DRHP list is shoddy in some or the other way, which explains the long list of litigations beyond the "materiality" threshold.
Achha - when was the last time he looked at any piece of legal work?
Weren’t the Regional Practice Heads designated under him just to ensure that the partners who sign the opinions have actually seen the offer documents?
London- Top class diversified CM practice areas- A&O and Linklaters (Singapore handles International law advisory on Indian transactions)
India
1- IndusLaw, S&R, SAM- These are absolute Tier 1 in terms of CM and the work they do. Indus works hybrid and gives great emphasis to work life balance, it is comparable to A&O abroad. But I would say S&R CM is class apart and if you do get to intern, look nowhere else and work for them.
2- CAM, Rajani Associates, JSA, TT&A -These come at the next level. I would advise you to seriously consider Rajani due to the great learning experience under Ms. Sangeeta who is probably one of the best ECM Partners in India. I would also advise you not to try CAM, as they will kill your will to live. TT&A seems kinda shady, Id say be wary.
3- Khaitan (Manisha Shroff- Debt), SNG Partners (Debt), Crawford Bayley- Will ask you to seriously consider SNG due to the great learning experience.
The rest of the firms have a dead CM practice, do not apply unless you want to beautify your CV. Also please do not apply to LL and SP as they have all dead practices and no client is trusting them. Clients reject them, they reject you. Avoid. Also try to avoid C--.
Bhai. Don't do capital markets. It's barely a legal practice and you'll be doing borderline clerical work 18 hours a day for the rest of your life before you drop dead of a heart attack at the age of 35. You'll miss everything important in life, you'll make next to no money compared to other practice area and there's very little scope for personal growth and development. I did this for 4 years before switching out to a different sector and I had to start from scratch. Please don't do this to yourself. Capital markets is a mistake.
Please suggest some good capital market law firms where I can intern in. I'm a Private law college student without any tier 1 internship yet and in 4th year currently.

Also speaking of fiascos, are we gonna forget the whole Amazon thing? (Dear Moderator, this is a PUBLIC litigation and you cannot moderate this, https://www.businessinsider.in/business/ecommerce/news/the-amazon-bribery-case-in-india-is-getting-murkier-and-the-lack-of-transparency-is-not-helping/articleshow/86553927.cms)
Well ▮▮▮ offer documents for shoddy companies like PayTM and MamaEarth don’t count when deciding who is gold standard.
