Full-service law firm Khaitan & Co opens office in GIFT City at Gandhinagar

Full-service law firm Khaitan & Co has opened a new office in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City), marking its entry into the country’s premier International Financial Services Centre (IFSC).

This follows the firm’s 2024 launch of its Ahmedabad office and highlights its strategy to expand in Gujarat, now a centre for industrial growth and cross-border financial activity.

“Gujarat has emerged as an important hub for industrial growth, investment and economic development, making it a strategically significant region,” said Haigreve Khaitan, managing partner, Khaitan & Co. “This move allows us to engage more closely with our clients through specialised expertise across financial services, regulatory advisory and complex transactions and build enduring partnerships.”

Siddharth Shah, Senior Partner, added that GIFT City’s distinct regulatory framework and rising global participation have created opportunities in areas such as global capability centres, treasury hubs, family office structuring and international debt capital markets.

Founded over a century ago, Khaitan & Co has more than 1,300 legal professionals, including over 340 partners and leaders.
