About

Provided by TT&A

TT&A boasts extensive expertise in advising both international and domestic clients across a diverse spectrum of debt capital markets and convertible bond transactions. As the premier law firm in India specializing in debt capital markets, their focus encompasses structured high-yield transactions, with a notable track record as legal counsel for a majority of international high-yield debt capital markets issuances by Indian companies in recent years. Even in 2023, when the markets were slow, we advised the joint lead managers in the only two high-yield bond issuances with underlying credit of Indian companies. We also advise on equity capital markets transactions including and assist clients across whole suite of transactions including initial public offerings, follow-on offerings, rights issues, qualified institutions placements, preferential issues, depository receipts and secondary trades.

 

Their practice extends to providing strategic guidance on financial regulatory matters related to securities laws, foreign exchange regulations, and derivatives for a range of esteemed clients in both international and domestic markets. Noteworthy is their distinct proficiency in infrastructure financings and project bonds transactions, having been involved in USD and INR debt issuances within the renewable energy, roads, airports, and transmission sectors.
