TOI reported the Cairn-Vedanta deal but there was no mention of Khaitan having worked on it!
Firms that nearly don't ever disclose as a matter of policy: AZB and S&R.
Khaitan occasionally tells us.
JSA usually shares other lawyers' names in press releases when they know, which is nice.
Not sure why TOI decided to run a story on CAM to be honest. Maybe because CAM SAM is now TOI material after the breakup? :)
They're usually rather prompt after deals get public and usually also include other law firms where available...
Obviously they were paid! Atleast that appears so, since it came on page 19, it was so tiny i believe most would have missed reading it.
Obviously you are jealous that your firm's deals are either not newsworthy nor great shakes in deal size/value. You will surprised the things you get on goodwill :-)
See this link, don't look to me tiny man !

didnt think i would hear you criticize other media houses....
I think most likely the only reason is because of the Shroff v Shroff dispute, which has made this a legitimate story for the business section of a mass audience paper like the TOI.
Anyway, wasn't criticism, just commentary, though happy to criticise media houses also if need be...
the counterparty firm can do the same form their side.
Dont think this is a moral obligations on which firms need to be judged with!
id rather have a firm be criticised for not mentioning all people involved than for not talking about the other firm in the matter.
On principles I believe if is Kian's duty to include the names of all concerned. Very bad Kian.... Pls make sure BMR associates are mentioned prominently next time
