This is an old LegallyIndia article about Senior Advocate Fees in Supreme Court. It's almost a decade since it was published. Fees has definitely increased. New names have not been added. Can we volunteer and update this fee list here. Any corrections/updates can be later made into an XL Sheet list.
Additionally Senior Fees in Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai can also be added. Name - fees etc.
Would it be fair to say that the question should then be, who has become a 'top senior'? The star of Arvind Dattar, as pointed out below, seems to have been rising, for instance. There must be some others too who have broken into the top tier?
please tell us about Bombay High Court Seniors such as Janak Dwarkadas, Sharan Jagtiani, Navroz Seervai, JP Sen, Darius Khambata, Rafiq Dada, Ravi Kadam, Birendra Saraf, Pravin Samdani, Zal Andharyujina, Nitin Thakker, Prasad Dhakepalkar, Prasad Dani, Ranjit Thorat, Abaad Ponda, Rahul Narichania, Fredun Devitre, Iqbal Chagla, Mustafa Doctor etc.
Abaad Ponda takes roughly 2.5 to 3 to argue one bail or ABA. Assuming 10 matters a day will fetch him 30 Lakhs a day X 30 which is equal to 9 cr a month X12 which is equal to whooping 108 cr a year. No doubt why Litigating lawyer are the highest tax payer. Every Senior which is mentioned minimum earning not less than 10 cr a year.

Legally India editors. Aravind Dattar is almost Harish Salve of South India. Only thing he needs is to be called in by a London Chamber.
