Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas (SAM) real estate partner Avnish Sharma is to join Khaitan & Co next month, boosting its real estate practice in Delhi that it’s long been looking to fill.
Executive director Amar Sinhji commented: "Avnish brings with him a wealth of experience. Real estate is an area of focus for us and we see tremendous opportunities in this space in the long term.”
Counsel PB Jain is the only other senior Khaitan lawyer in Delhi specialising in real estate.
Sharma is a graduate of the London School of Economics (LSE), and had been promoted to SAM’s non-equity partnership in 2016.
Shardul Amarchand Delhi managing partner Pallavi Shroff commented: "Wish him all the best in life.”
Meanwhile, in unrelated news, SAM litigation partner Saanjh Purohit is joining Facebook, in-house.

Enough work for all, the firm believes in cross selling and is not limited to the typical eat what you kill mentality which promotes undercutting and vested insecurities amongst most partners in some other law firms.
The fact that a partner is willing to forego his bonus and leave in last 15 days with his intention to join KCO spelt out, evinces the faith in work flow therein, at the very least.
All you need to do is be a good lawyer and more importantly be a better human being to belong here.
