Electricity Law, I feel perhaps is the most lucrative Tribunal to practice. Apart from APTEL, there's i think electricity commissions in every state. If i am not wrong at JSA one of two key managing partners Amit Kapur also solely practices electricity law. in fact, Vishrov Mukherjee who was the other high profile partner to move to Tri last year, with Anuj Berry, also solely practices electricity law. Even Akshay Jaitly (Tri co-founder) was key person in electricity law and routinely puts up electricity sector posts on his Linkedin.
A close friend who practices electricity keeps telling me me how in SC electricity law matters are some of the biggest commercial matters with dispute value almost always being above 500-800cr and its only the top tier silk gowns who are briefed. I feel the reason is that its the playing field of adanis, tatas, reliance, vedanta, renew power. He tells me Tri, KCO, JSA, DSK are knee deep in the practice. There a lot of small boutiques firms like SKV and MSA Partners with a good chunk of the work who are good paymasters as well. to summarize electricity is some serious money for those who can get in.
