Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas has hired a fourth M&A partner in a month with the addition of Mohit Gogia from S&R Associates in New Delhi.

Gogia has over 18 years of experience advising on mergers and acquisitions, private equity and cross-border investment transactions and general corporate matters. He was an equity partner at S&R Associates, and previously worked at U.S. law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom in New York.

Gogia’s hire comes as CAM looks to build its M&A capabilities across offices. In the last month, the firm hired partners Pooranimaa Hariharan from Trilegal, Alok Sonker from Krishnamurthy & Co, and Jay Parikh from Luthra and Luthra Law Offices.

CAM has also added a 50-lawyer capital markets team led by Manan Lahoty and employment partner Sowyma Kumar, both from IndusLaw, in the last two weeks.

The firm saw the departure of M&A-focused equity partner Shishir Vayttaden along with his team to Khaitan & Co in July.

“Mohit’s experience and expertise will be vital to our growth strategy and will augment our corporate practice in North India,” Ajay Sawhney, partner and head of CAM’s North India practice said in a statement.
