Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas starts August with another partner hire, adding labour and employment partner Sowmya Kumar in Delhi, a source with knowledge of the move told ALB.
Kumar, previously at IndusLaw brings 15 years of experience advising companies in relation to labour and compliance-related queries, and also structuring of internal regulatory policies.
Prior to joining CAM, Kumar had stints at Khaitan Legal Associates, PwC, and Amarchand Mangaldas & Suresh A Shroff & Co.
