The India Legal Awards are the leading awards for India's business law community, showcasing the many achievements of one of the country's most booming sectors. Reed Smith received the honour following the awards ceremony and summit, held at Windsor Place in New Delhi.
The firm’s India Business Team, co-chaired by partners Ranajoy Basu and Gautam Bhattacharyya, has advised on India-related business for 26 years, and is thus a deeply experienced foreign firm involved in the Indian legal market.
In addition to deep experience advising clients on India-related matters across a broad range of practice areas, the team has advised on some of the most innovative and market-leading transactions in the social impact finance sector in India. This month, the team acted as transaction counsel to UBS Optimus Foundation and Palladium International Limited on the formation of the world's first healthcare development impact bond, aimed to reduce mother and baby deaths in Rajasthan, India.
Earlier this year, Reed Smith was named by The India Business Law Journal as one of the leading international law firms for work in India in 2017. In addition, the India Business Team was nominated for Law Firm of the Year at the UK India Awards and for Best in Legal Services at the British Indian Awards.
