Partners of AZB & Partners’ Funds practice Ganesh Rao and Aditya Jha are leaving the firm to join Trilegal.

“We wish them all the very best, and thank them for their contribution to AZB.

The AZB Funds practice continues to be co-headed by Senior Partners Sai Krishna Bharathan and Ashwath Rau, along with Partner Pallabi Ghosal.”

Both Ganesh Rao and Aditya Jha had joined AZB in 2016 from Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas.
