The RSG top50 Indian law firms 2019

India’s Legal Tigers emerge

Topping the RSG ranking of Indian Law Firms this year is AZB & Partners. However, there is a clear top tier of Indian law firms, which includes FOUR firms, AZB, Khaitan & Co, SAM and CAM. There is not that much to differentiate between these firms, they have different strengths but win the top mandates, gain the highest numbers of mention and have significant resources. A close second tier of firms would include Trilegal, JSA and L&L Partners. Outside of this, stellar specialist and smaller more focused legal practices include Anand & Anand, Nishith Desai and S&R Partners.  

Notable risers and new entrants

Rising up the list of Indian law firms are: IndusLaw and Veritas (rising 10 and 12 places, respectively). ELP, Link Legal, and DSK also gained ground. 

Notable new entrants include Argus Partners, Dhaval Vussonji & Associates and ZBA.
