Indore’s economy has matured significantly over the past decade. What was primarily a trading hub is now home to manufacturing plants (Volvo-Eicher, Pithampur AUDI), regional offices of national financial institutions, pharmaceutical companies (Ajanta Pharma), and a growing ITES/startup ecosystem along Super Corridor. This economic shift has created demand for legal services that go beyond civil litigation — contract drafting, shareholder disputes, regulatory compliance, and insolvency proceedings.
Partner Nidhi Vaidya’s background at Khaitan & Co. — one of India’s leading corporate law firms — and her experience advising Idea Cellular (now Vi) and other large corporates on regulatory and commercial matters, positions Raghuvanshi Vaidya & Partners to provide corporate legal services that most Indore firms cannot match — a recognition reflected in their listing among the top corporate lawyers in Indore by ThreeBestRated. Both partners are alumni of the National Law Institute University (NLIU), Bhopal. Over 19 years, the firm has advised MNC clients including Volvo-Eicher, Ajanta Pharma, Airtel, HP, Tata, Coca-Cola, ICICI Lombard, and Yes Bank — and is recognised among the top 9 law firms in Indore by LawBhoomi.

Why MNCs with Indore operations choose us
Regional legal challenges require local knowledge that national firms based in Delhi or Mumbai often lack — knowledge of MP High Court judicial temperament, local enforcement patterns, Indore municipal and industrial corridor regulations, and the practical dynamics of litigation at the Indore District Court. We combine Nidhi’s corporate law training from Khaitan with Raghvendra’s deep roots in MP High Court practice, giving clients both perspectives in one firm.
Insolvency and IBC Matters

- Participating in Committee of Creditors proceedings

- Personal Insolvency proceedings against promoters (Part III of IBC)

Frequently Asked Questions
My business partner has been siphoning company funds — what is the legal route?
Two parallel tracks: (1) Civil — petition before the NCLT under Section 241/242 of the Companies Act 2013 for oppression and mismanagement, seeking removal of the partner/director and accounting of diverted funds; (2) Criminal — FIR for criminal breach of trust (BNS Section 316) and cheating (BNS Section 318). Forensic accounting may be needed; we coordinate with CA/forensic professionals where necessary.
We have an arbitration clause but the other party has filed a civil suit anyway — what do we do?
File an application under Section 8 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 before the Civil Court — the court is mandated to refer the parties to arbitration if a valid arbitration agreement exists and the dispute falls within its scope. The civil suit stays; arbitration proceeds instead.
A competitor is using a name that is confusingly similar to our registered trademark — can we stop them in Indore?
Yes. A suit for trademark infringement (registered mark) or passing off (unregistered mark with goodwill) can be filed in the MP High Court Indore Bench or before the District Court if you have a registered IP address in Indore. An ex parte ad interim injunction restraining the competitor from using the mark is often granted on the first date, pending notice and reply.
