Lakshmi Rajagopalan Rejoins Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas as Partner in Financial Services and Technology Practice

Lakshmi Rajagopalan has returned to Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas as a Partner within the firm’s Financial Services and Technology Practice, where she will work out of the Bengaluru office.

With over fifteen years of experience across projects, banking, finance, and fintech law, Lakshmi previously held roles with Udaan and Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, as well as its predecessor, Amarchand & Mangaldas. In her previous in-house position, she was responsible for overseeing banking and finance transactions across various group companies and managing legal and regulatory compliance, particularly from an RBI perspective, within the fintech sector, which included an NBFC, payment aggregator, and lending service provider. She also managed regulatory initiatives and worked closely with senior leadership on strategic goals, such as equity fundraising and group restructuring.

During her earlier tenure with Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas and Amarchand & Mangaldas, Lakshmi advised a range of banks, financial institutions, funds, and NBFCs on financing and debt investment transactions, including structured lending across multiple sectors. In welcoming her, Ms. Reeba Chacko, Senior Partner at Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, expressed her enthusiasm, stating, “We are thrilled to welcome Lakshmi back. Her deep experience and expertise will further strengthen our capabilities in financial services and technology.”

Lakshmi holds a B.A. LL.B. (Hons.) from the National University of Advanced Legal Studies (NUALS), Kerala, obtained in 2008, and an LL.M. from the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law, with a specialization in Environmental Law & Energy and Clean Technology Laws, awarded in 2011. Commenting on her return, Ms. Rajagopalan said, “I’m eager to rejoin CAM, where I began my career nearly 15 years ago. I look forward to reconnecting with my colleagues and collaborating with some of the best minds in the field.”
