Corporate Lawyer in Delhi — A Legal Partner, Not Just a Service Provider
Running a business in Delhi means dealing with the Companies Act, GST compliance, contract obligations, employment law, and the possibility of commercial disputes — often all at once. Legal problems that get handled reactively, only after they’ve already escalated into a dispute, are almost always more expensive to resolve than the same issue caught early.
As your Corporate Lawyer in Delhi, we work as a practical extension of your business — combining serious commercial litigation experience with legal support that’s actually built for how startups and SMEs operate, not just large enterprises.
Advocate Arun Varma — Senior Commercial & Corporate Advocate
Leading our corporate practice, Arun Varma brings over 10 years of experience before the Delhi High Court, with specific depth in:
- Commercial disputes — contract enforcement, breach of contract, and business fraud
- NCLT matters — insolvency, winding up, and company law petitions
- Property and real estate transactions — commercial leases, development agreements, and RERA matters
- Debt recovery — DRT proceedings, summary suits, and recovery litigation
- Corporate governance — shareholder agreements, board disputes, and partnership deeds
- Regulatory compliance — Delhi High Court regulatory litigation and SEBI-related matters
His guiding approach is what we call “litigation readiness” — preparing every business matter, whether it’s a contract or a courtroom dispute, to the same rigorous standard from day one, so problems are caught before they become expensive.
Our Corporate Legal Services
Contract Drafting, Review & Enforcement
A poorly drafted contract is one of the most expensive mistakes a business can make — not at signing, but months later when a dispute arises and the wording doesn’t hold up. We draft and review the full range of business contracts:
| Contract Type | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Service agreements | Defines scope, payment terms, and liability — prevents client disputes |
| Vendor/supplier contracts | Protects against supply failures, quality defects, and payment defaults |
| Employment contracts | Enforceable non-compete, confidentiality, and notice period clauses |
| NDAs | Protects trade secrets and confidential business information |
| Partnership deeds | Profit sharing, decision-making authority, and exit clauses |
| Shareholder agreements | Voting rights, share transfer restrictions, and founder vesting terms |
Company Registration & Ongoing Compliance
From choosing the right business structure to handling ongoing regulatory filings, we support businesses through:
- Private Limited Company registration
- LLP registration
- Partnership firm registration
- One Person Company (OPC) formation
- Sole Proprietorship with MSME registration
- Section 8 Company (NGO) registration
Beyond formation, we handle ROC filings and annual compliance requirements, so businesses stay on the right side of regulatory deadlines without having to track them independently.
NCLT Matters — Insolvency, Winding Up & Company Petitions
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), New Delhi handles insolvency proceedings under the IBC, company winding up, oppression and mismanagement petitions, and merger or amalgamation approvals. We represent both creditors and debtors before the NCLT’s New Delhi Principal Bench, including:
- Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under the IBC
- Personal guarantor proceedings under the IBC
- Oppression and mismanagement petitions (Sections 241–242)
- Winding up petitions
- Merger and amalgamation matters (Sections 230–232)
- NCLAT appeals
Commercial Dispute Resolution
Breach of contract, non-payment, business fraud, partnership conflicts, and shareholder or director disputes are resolved before Delhi’s district civil courts, the Delhi High Court for higher-value disputes, or through arbitration — depending on the nature and value of the matter. Regular appearance before the Delhi High Court means these disputes are handled with genuine litigation experience behind them, not just paperwork.
We handle:
- Breach of contract claims
- Commercial debt recovery and non-payment disputes
- Business fraud and cheating matters
- Partnership disputes
- Shareholder and director conflicts
- Distributor and franchise disputes
Debt Recovery
Choosing the right recovery route matters, since each is suited to a different type of debt:
| Route | Best Suited For |
|---|---|
| Summary suit (Order XXXVII CPC) | Written contracts and acknowledged debts |
| Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) | Bank loans above the applicable threshold |
| Civil recovery suit | General commercial debts |
| Section 138 NI Act | Cheque bounce matters |
Startup Legal Services
A large share of early-stage startups engage a corporate lawyer within their first year of incorporation — usually because early legal groundwork prevents far costlier problems as the business scales. We support startups across:
- Company or LLP structure advice
- Founders’ agreements
- MOA/AOA drafting
- IP assignment
- Employee offer letters
- Vendor contracts
- Terms of service and privacy policy drafting
- DPDP Act compliance
- Term sheet review
- Shareholders’ agreement (SHA) drafting
- SAFE/CCD instrument review
- Due diligence response support

- Startup Packages That Scale With You — From incorporation through investor-ready documentation, handled as one coordinated engagement rather than piecemeal requests.
- Fast Action When It’s Urgent — Commercial injunctions and urgent NCLT applications filed immediately when a business matter can’t wait.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should a startup first involve a corporate lawyer?
Ideally at incorporation — founders’ agreements, IP assignment, and proper company structure set early prevent disputes and complications as the business grows and takes on investors or employees.
What’s the difference between a summary suit and going to the DRT for debt recovery?
A summary suit under Order XXXVII CPC works well for recovering debts backed by a written contract or acknowledgment. The DRT is specifically for recovering bank loans above a set threshold — the right route depends on the nature of the debt and the creditor involved.
What happens in an NCLT insolvency matter?
The NCLT oversees the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process under the IBC, which can be initiated by creditors or the company itself, and may lead to resolution, restructuring, or liquidation depending on the outcome of proceedings.
Can you help draft a shareholder agreement for a growing business?
Yes — shareholder agreements covering voting rights, share transfer restrictions, and founder vesting are a core part of our corporate governance services, and are best put in place before a dispute makes them necessary.
Do you handle regulatory compliance, or only disputes and contracts?
Both. We support ongoing ROC filings, annual compliance, and DPDP Act compliance alongside dispute resolution and contract work, so businesses have consistent legal support rather than only reactive help during a crisis.
How are your fees structured for businesses?
We offer transparent, often fixed-fee arrangements for SMEs and startups specifically to make legal costs predictable — details are discussed clearly during your free consultation.
