He worked with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer in London in the late 1990s. In 2002, he started his firm as \u201cDaulet-Singh &amp; Associates\u201d in order to bridge the gap between Indian and international law firm working styles and overall client experience. It was then rebranded to Platinum Partners in 2008, which has now evolved into the firm Touchstone Partners. He extensively advises several financial institutions and multinational corporations in connection with their India strategies and has\u00a0worked on some of the largest cross-border transactions in the Indian market in the last 20 years.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>He has been interviewed by EBC-SCC Online Student Ambassador Dikshi Arora who is currently pursuing law from Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Can you tell us something about your law school journey and take us through the early days of your profession?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I read law at Cambridge University as a first degree. \u00a0That meant I had to do my A levels, which were not offered by schools in Mumbai in the early 1990s. \u00a0Accordingly, I took a year off after school and studied privately. \u00a0It was a big risk, but it paid off in the end. \u00a0My three years at university were action packed. \u00a0I pushed myself to get the best possible academic outcomes and had it not been for a hamstring injury would even have run in the varsity match across Oxford University. \u00a0When I talk to young lawyers today who try and tell me the various initiatives they pursued at university, I often say that\u00a0it is all very well, but nothing should come in the way of fulfilling your true academic potential.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>What are your primary day-to-day tasks and objectives as a Managing Partner?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I try and make sure that the team is aware of and buys into the direction the firm is driving towards; I like to keep an eye on overall client experience; the well-being of individual lawyers is also very important; and of course I am actively engaged in transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>What were the challenges you faced while setting up Touchstone Partners? Take us through the decisions to part ways and to form a new entity.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Touchstone Partners is the culmination of my partners and my professional endeavours. \u00a0I think we finally have a group of lawyers across all offices who understand that cross-border transactional work charged out at a certain price and performed in a certain &#8220;style&#8221; \u00a0is all we do. \u00a0Controlling growth and remaining true to one&#8217;s focus is a huge challenge. \u00a0Parting ways is always tricky, but an honest course correction can provide a much-needed boost to momentum.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"4\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>How has the firm evolved since then? What does the future hold for the Delhi and Mumbai office, and for the firm as a whole?\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have a national presence today across Mumbai, New Delhi and Bangalore. \u00a0With my moving to Mumbai, I am able to lead the firm from the heart of the business capital. \u00a0I believe that the future for every Touchstone Partners lawyer is bright. \u00a0I feel confident that the proposition we offer our clients in the cross-border context is quite unique.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"5\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>As a managing partner, how have you been able to manage and run your team during this pandemic? Can you share some of the hurdles you faced during this unprecedented time?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have tried to remain as connected as possible \u2013 on a one-to-one basis \u2013 with each member of our firm. \u00a0We worked very hard during the pandemic to upgrade our technology.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

you?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Closing the BP RIL fuel retailing JV in the midst of lockdowns was challenging. \u00a0Closing some very significant transactions for Tencent and a leading GCC sovereign wealth fund validated the intactness of the India growth story.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"7\">\n<li><span style=\"color:

balance?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In my opinion, life must be lived fully across all dimensions: intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual. \u00a0With this awareness in place, it should then not be too difficult for each of us to find an equilibrium. \u00a0More mundanely, if you find yourself in a toxic work environment that is unlikely to change, get out of it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"8\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>What advice would you

going through a boom time. \u00a0In addition to sincerity and hard work, you need a lot of self-awareness, I feel, to find the most suitable job. \u00a0To make it big, you need to have the ability to control your emotions and focus on always developing yourself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interviewed by Dikshi
