Kurien was promoted as part of a global partnership round of 34.
He specialises in finance and corporate work, with clients including Procter & Gamble and Tata and Godrej subsidiaries, according to his firm profile:
Vinay represents clients such as The Procter & Gamble Co. and various companies in the Tata and Godrej groups. Among others, Vinay represented Micron Technology, Inc.

He had moved to Singapore in 2011 from AZB, where he had been an associate for four years in Mumbai.
We have reached out to him for comment.
