Khaitan & Co has continued the expansion of its Ahmedabad office by hiring Mudit Shah from Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas as a partner in its real estate and corporate practice in the city.
Shah becomes the third partner to join Khaitan in its Ahmedabad office, which launched in December last year with another CAM partner, Atman Desai. The firm then added disputes partner Digant Popat to bolster its capabilities in the city in April.
Shah’s real estate and general corporate focus is set to add to the firm’s competitiveness in the fast-growing legal market in Ahmedabad. He also specialises in infrastructure projects and aviation with a focus on acquisitions, joint ventures, and slump sale transactions, particularly for entities in the industrial, manufacturing, and renewable energy sectors.
Shah had been at CAM (and the erstwhile Amarchand Mangaldas) since 2012, making partner in 2020. Prior to that, he had stints at HSA Advocates and Paras Kuhad & Associates.
