We draft and negotiate the central concession agreements with the government, ensuring fair risk allocation regarding land acquisition delays and cost overruns.
Project finance and syndication: we represent lead banks and borrowing developers in structuring multi-crore syndicated loans. Our finance lawyers draft meticulous loan agreements, escrow mechanisms, and hypothecation deeds to secure the financial closure of the project.

Construction Arbitration & Dispute Resolution

In infrastructure, delays equal exponential financial losses. When disputes over scope-changes, force majeure, or payment defaults arise, our litigation team initiates rapid Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). We specialize in construction arbitration, representing clients in high-value claims against state bodies like the NHAI (National Highways Authority of India) and the PWD, securing arbitral awards for idle machinery and extended stay costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about infrastructure & project finance matters

Why do infrastructure disputes often end up in arbitration?

Because EPC and concession frameworks are usually built around technical, time-sensitive claims that parties prefer to resolve through specialist arbitral processes. Arbitration allows for expert tribunals and faster resolution than traditional litigation.

What is the legal risk in weak concession drafting?

Poor risk allocation can shift land, timing, and approval delays onto the wrong party and destroy the commercial viability of the project. We ensure concession agreements explicitly allocate risks for land acquisition, regulatory approvals, and force majeure events.

Why are lender documents central to project disputes?

Because finance structures, security enforcement, and cash waterfalls often determine how leverage plays out when the project underperforms or stalls. Properly drafted loan agreements and escrow mechanisms protect lender interests while allowing project flexibility.
