Trilegal Expands with New Office in GIFT City

Trilegal has officially launched a new office in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City), enhancing its footprint across India’s prominent financial and business hubs. This expansion signifies Trilegal’s ongoing commitment to investing in areas that are pivotal to India’s cross-border financial and investment activities.

GIFT City is evolving into a key destination for international financial services. By establishing a presence there, Trilegal aims to collaborate more effectively with financial institutions, investment funds, corporates, intermediaries, and other entities operating in this ecosystem.

Nishant Parikh and Sridhar Gorthi, Partners and Members of the Management Committee at Trilegal, commented, “GIFT City is crucial for structuring cross-border investments and financial transactions in Indian and global business landscapes. Our presence here aligns with our strategy to stay proximate to where our clients conduct business, underscoring our long-term dedication to an ecosystem poised to enhance India’s connection with global capital.”

Pallabi Ghosal, Partner in the Corporate (Asset Management and Funds) Practice at Trilegal, added, “With GIFT IFSC entering a more mature phase, fund managers and investors are increasingly considering it for their cross-border structuring and capital strategies. A local presence allows us to engage deeply with the structuring and regulatory aspects central to these decisions.”

Trilegal has been providing counsel across various GIFT IFSC matters, leveraging its expertise in banking and finance, capital markets, investment funds, corporate and M&A, financial regulation, fintech, and taxation. As part of Trilegal’s cohesive national platform, the GIFT City office will collaborate closely with other teams to support both domestic and international clients, solidifying the firm’s influence in this burgeoning market.
