Know More

Testimonials

"Our company acquired key fertilizer manufacturing assets through a Scheme of Arrangement under Sections 230–232 of the Companies Act, 2013. We engaged Legal Win Consulting LLP to manage the transaction from structuring to regulatory approvals. Legal Win conducted comprehensive legal due diligence, coordinated valuation exercises, prepared the Scheme, and advised on all regulatory requirements. The team successfully obtained approval from the Competition Commission of India (CCI) under Sections 5 and 6 of the Competition Act, 2002, relating to combinations and merger control, and represented us in the NCLT proceedings leading to the sanction of the Scheme. Their expertise in corporate restructuring, M&A, competition law, and NCLT practice ensured the acquisition's smooth, timely completion, significantly enhancing our manufacturing capacity and market position. We highly recommend Legal Win Consulting LLP for Schemes of Arrangement, asset acquisitions, CCI approvals, and NCLT matters. We engaged Legal Win Consulting LLP to protect our rights. The team demonstrated exceptional expertise in assigned land laws, Patta land issues, prohibited registration properties, revenue records, and succession rights under the Hindu Succession Act. Their thorough examination of assignment records, title documents, revenue entries, and inheritance claims helped resolve issues that had remained disputed for years. Legal Win successfully represented us before revenue authorities, civil courts, and the Land Grabbing Court, effectively defeating the claims of land grabbers and establishing our lawful title and possession. Their deep understanding of the complexities surrounding assigned lands, inheritance rights, and land grabbing laws was instrumental in securing a favourable outcome. We highly recommend Legal Win Consulting LLP for assigned land disputes, title verification, succession matters, prohibited property issues, and land grabbing litigation."

MD - Manufacturing Company

"Our company faced a hostile acquisition attempt by a foreign multinational that had acquired a substantial stake in the open market and sought to gain control of the company. We engaged Legal Win Consulting LLP to protect our company, management, and minority shareholders. Legal Win conducted a detailed review of the acquirer's actions under the SEBI Act, 1992, and the SEBI (SAST) Regulations, 2011, identifying issues relating to acquisition thresholds, mandatory open offer obligations, acquisition of control, and disclosure requirements. The team effectively represented us before SEBI, the stock exchanges, and appellate forums, relying on Sections 11 and 11B of the SEBI Act, Regulations 3 and 4 of the Takeover Code, and minority shareholder protections under Sections 241 and 242 of the Companies Act, 2013. Their strategic advice, regulatory expertise, and high-quality advocacy successfully prevented a coercive acquisition and preserved our company's independence. The outcome protected shareholder value, management continuity, customer relationships, and long-term business strategy. We highly recommend Legal Win Consulting LLP for takeover defence, SEBI litigation, shareholder disputes, oppression and mismanagement proceedings, and complex corporate control matters."
