Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas (CAM) head of international tax and director Daksha Baxi has started up her own firm, SRI Solutions, in Mumbai, according to her LinkedIn profile.
She had joined CAM in 2018 from Khaitan & Co.
Her daughter, Pooja Baxi-Patel who had joined CAM at the same time as Baxi as a corporate partner, is remaining at the firm.
Update 15:46: As pointed out in the comments, Baxi-Patel is still a corporate partner but also deputy-head of international business development; she very much also continues doing fee-earning work, however.
Managing partner Cyril Shroff had told Bar & Bench: “Daksha had a 3 year contract with us and had now retired as per our retirement age policy. She made a valuable contribution during her stint with us. We wish her well and hope she enjoys her retirement thoroughly.”
We have reached out to her and CAM for comment.
Update 17:11: Baxi said: “I have had a wonderful time at CAM. Worked with some of the most brilliant and brightest lawyers and on some really path breaking transactions and issues.
“It is time for me to move on to focus on my passion. This means doing some fundamental research to provide some solutions through that; some out of the box thinking; write books, thought leadership articles and provide advice and solutions to smaller outfits and individuals on complex tax and cross border issues.
“I believe life for globally mobile individuals has become complex and I am keen to help them so that they are not caught off guard.”

"In arguing too, the parson owned his skill, For e'en though vanquished, he could argue still\"
What are you smoking or have you also decided to brush various problems which have surfaced off late at kco? Eg: (1) harassment complaints and botched redressal thereof; and (2) alleged overwork of young associates to their breaking point.
It's barely tolerable for an Englishman of no consequence to do so, it's utterly nauseating to see, random Indians do it.

TLDR: You're an Indian, not a daughter hailing from the Sutherland-Leveson-Gower family.

Quote: Yes and No.

Quote: Will do, soon after you pass Jnr and Snr KG.
Quote: Padha likha jaahil, a distinct clan/dynastic identity, signified by one's surname is a major theme to the play.
Sounds like some geriatric almost has been who sips their cheap gin, saying "this is not ok" and "that's not acceptable" to everything in the world, with the creeping realisation that they've always been irrelevant, and are now nearing extinction. 😈
Like I said:
I think the last word in Cyril's statement could have been left out.
(And if you don't enjoy your retirement "thoroughly", then too bad...no re-boot...only final exit!)
