"This is a firm that has made its reputation through a passionate and successful commitment to quality. Its tie-up with Clifford Chance does appear to be bearing fruit for both sides despite the magic circle not winning the recent Bharti Airtel instruction. For AZB & Partners, it remains to be seen how the magic circle firm begins to impact on the way in which the firm works. Certainly access to know-how and management expertise in one of the world's most developed law firms is not to be sniffed at."<ref>[http://rsg-india.com/indian-law-firms/profiles/azb-partners RSG India profile 2010]</ref>
