    Big-Ticket Disputes, Bigger Perspective: Lessons from Rohit Kapadia | The Legacy Series

    In this episode of The Daily Lawyer Podcast – Legacy Series, we sit down with Senior Advocate Mr Rohit Kapadia, one of India’s most respected corporate litigators, for a rare and reflective conversation on law, legacy, and the cases that shaped modern corporate jurisprudence. This episode goes beyond headlines to examine the legal thinking, institutional pressures, and courtroom realities behind some of India’s most consequential moments in financial and corporate history - including discussions around the Harshad Mehta era, Yes Bank, and Bhupen Dalal. What you’ll hear is not commentary, but first-hand insight into: How landmark corporate disputes unfold inside courtrooms The difference between public narrative and legal reality How judges, lawyers, and institutions shape outcomes over time What young lawyers misunderstand about “big cases” The long view of law - reputation, restraint, and responsibility This is a conversation about judgment, not just judgments. The Legacy Series documents the voices that have quietly shaped Indian law - with depth, dignity, and perspective. Presented in collaboration with Solomon & Co. With gratitude to Senior Advocate Mr Rohit Kapadia for sharing his time and wisdom. Watch till the end for insights that rarely make it into reported judgments.

    Why CLM Is No Longer Optional: Atul Juvle on Risk, Renewals & Speed-to-Market | TDL x Zoho Contracts

    Contract Lifecycle Management is no longer a legal department tool. It’s a business survival system. In collaboration with Zoho Contracts, in this episode of The Daily Lawyer Podcast, we sit down with Mr Atul Juvle - former General Counsel at HDFC, HDFC Ergo, Schindler, and Otis Elevators, and current board member across multiple listed companies - to unpack how contracting has evolved from paperwork to enterprise risk intelligence. In a world of geopolitical shocks, regulatory pressure, supply-chain disruptions, and real-time accountability, Mr Atul explains why: A single missed contract renewal can create criminal liability CEOs now expect answers in minutes - not days CLM has moved from “legal cost” to boardroom necessity AI-powered contracting is essential - but human judgment still matters MSMEs and startups need CLM even before scale This episode is especially relevant for: ✔️ In-house legal teams ✔️ General Counsel & Legal Heads ✔️ CXOs, CFOs & Compliance Leaders ✔️ Founders, MSMEs & IPO-bound companies ✔️ Legal Ops & Risk Professionals Key Topics Covered: The evolution of legal from “no-go” to “co-pilot” Why contract renewals are the most dangerous blind spot How CLM prevents revenue leakage & compliance failures Speed-to-market as a legal KPI AI vs human review: what truly works Why CLM is as essential as a mobile phone today Our sincere thanks to Zoho Contracts for enabling this collaboration, and to Mr. Atul Juvle for sharing his time, experience, and perspective with our audience.

    ‘Haq Se’: The Legal Awareness Movement Transforming Lives - with Barrister Susheel Bellara

    What if legal help in India could begin not with fear, but with awareness? Earlier this month, while I was in my office, Susheel Bellara sent me a message on LinkedIn. Four hours later, he was sitting across from me. As we spoke about Haq Se and the quiet revolution he’s building, we decided, spontaneously, to hit record. No preparation, no lights or makeup, no agenda. Just two people talking about a platform that could genuinely help both litigants and lawyers. That is how this episode was born: raw, simple, and honest. In this special episode of The Daily Lawyer Podcast, I sit down with Barrister Sushil Bellara, founder of Haq Se : a free, non-profit platform designed to make legal understanding accessible to everyone. Through Haq Se, families and individuals can: Estimate realistic maintenance amounts using a calculator based off Supreme court judgments on maintenance Access mediation support under India’s new Mediation Act (Section 5) Connect with trusted NGOs, pro bono lawyers, and counsellors Safely record, and send to a trusted source in real-time, incidents of domestic violence (or other traumatic events) through a “Secret Diary” feature Senior members of the judiciary, including former Supreme Court and High Court judges, have already recognised the potential of Haq Se to bridge awareness gaps across India. Listen in to see how technology, empathy, and law can come together to create meaningful change. 🔗 Explore Haq Se: https://www.haqse.org/ Connect with us:  Contact: contactus@thedailylawyer.in Website: https://thedailylawyer.in/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailylawyerig/?hl=en  LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenna-v-krishnan/  To volunteer or collaborate, connect with The Daily Lawyer or Haq Se through the links above.
