We are delighted to announce that our Delhi
and Bengaluru offices will be relocating to new office spaces - Max Towers in
Noida (Delhi) and Embassy Quest, Ashok Nagar in Bengaluru from 1 September, 2020.
Founded
in 1911, Khaitan & Co has now grown to over 160 Partners and 700 lawyers
across our offices in Kolkata, Delhi, Bengaluru and Mumbai.
“Relocating
to a better and bigger space in both Delhi and Bengaluru was on the cards for a
while now, given our steady growth and our commitment to provide a Modern
Working Environment to our members and clients. This move is a significant
milestone in our long-term expansion plans in India,” said Amar Sinhji,
Executive Director, Human Resources, Khaitan & Co.
The
new offices in Delhi and Bengaluru will have the capacity to accommodate around
500 and 300 members, respectively.

support office, the Firm will now mainly operate out of the Max Towers office.

lawyers will operate completely out of its new location at Embassy Quest.

offices have had a consistently stellar run over the last decade, with some landmark
deals and matters being run in recent times. We foresee steady organic growth,
underpinned with a strong representation of practice experts across all our current
offices. And moving to larger state-of-the-art workspaces and new locations
too, will help keep us ahead of the curve in terms of providing world class facilities
not just to our members but our clients as well.”
