Overview

Indian energy and infrastructure practice operates within a regulatory framework structured by the Electricity Act, 2003, the various concession-agreement regimes (NHAI, port concessions, airport concessions), the FIDIC and bespoke EPC contracts that govern most large projects, and the CERC/SERC tariff-determination processes. The firm advises developers, EPC contractors, sub-contractors, lenders and disputes-arising consortium parties.
