Tata Sons' group legal team wins top honours at the Annual Legal Era Awards
The Legal Era awards honours performance and excellence in the legal industry.
The Tata Sons’ group legal team’s continued contribution to the development of corporate law through provision of inputs reflecting the industry’s perspective to the Government of India and regulators, particularly in relation to various corporate and commercial laws including the Companies Act 2013, SEBI regulations and amendments to multiple economic legislations helped the team to differentiate their legal strategy from other in-house legal teams and emerge as winners.
Commenting on the win, Bharat Vasani, Chief, Legal and Group General Counsel, Tata Sons said, “The Tata Sons’ group legal team embodies the Tata culture of playing an active role in public policy matters. In FY 2014-15, we played a key role in advising on complex restructuring transactions, high stake commercial disputes and constitutional law matters besides ensuring that the Tata companies’ migration to the new Companies Act, 2013 was smooth. We made a tremendous impact through our ‘Policy Advocacy’ role. This is an innovative feature which has not been associated with the in-house legal fraternity. It is indeed an honor for us that our efforts have been lauded and recognised by peers in the legal fraternity.”
This year, the awards saw participation from over 100+ Law Firms and 150+ Corporate Houses hailing from distinct constituencies like the Business Community, the External Lawyers Community, and the In-House Counsel.
