Recommendations

In their own words.

Endorsements from clients, partners and senior counsel who have worked directly with Shray across India, Singapore and the wider APAC region.

Shray was very professional and helpful in providing his legal insights and inputs. He was always collaborative and I can trust him to provide a balanced view. What I also appreciated was that he was able to provide options and solutions when we hit roadblocks. Will be happy to work with him again if given the opportunity!

Edmund Heng

Partner, Technology Consulting — KPMG Singapore

I have worked with Shray on quite a few software and SaaS related engagements and found him knowledgeable on the subject matter. His support to the business by providing timely and business-friendly solutions not only made him a strong contributor to our practice, but also helped the team develop a deeper understanding of the intricacy between the commercial and legal portions of a contract.

Jan Reinmueller

Strategic AI Advisor · Independent Director (ex-KPMG)

In consulting, there is the concept of the "Trusted Adviser" — someone you can turn to in an instant knowing they will provide the answer or put you in touch with the right person. Shray is one such person. No matter how complex the question or how difficult the situation, Shray always got us to the right conclusion. He went far above his normal job description and served as a strong voice in the organisation, always pushing the teams to get it right. A very strong contributor and an asset to the organisation.

Dominick John Chillemi

Director, FS Consulting — PwC

I have worked with Shray for many engagements and find him knowledgeable and yet able to strike a balance between business practicality and risk management.

Andrew Koh

Partner — KPMG

I had an opportunity to oversee Shray closely in the initial days of his career. I found him sincere, hard working and able to gel well with his team. In a short span he became an encyclopaedia of matters being handled by the Competition Law Practice Group. He is an asset worth acquiring, and I am confident he will bring smiles and success in challenging situations.

Gurdev Raj Bhatia

Partner — Luthra & Luthra Law Offices

Shray worked with me at Suri & Co on a number of transactions and was extremely good with his knowledge of law. He had a great eye for detail and was extremely methodical in his work. In my view he has great potential to become a leader in his practice.

Arjun Anand

Partner — Antares Legal (ex-Suri & Company)

Shray came to our firm as an intern. His enthusiasm and hunger to learn led us to offer him a position even before his graduation. His tenure was remarkable — steady growth, an appetite for learning and a desire to excel. His work was soon appreciated by colleagues and clients alike. His commitment and zeal will help him shine through and develop into an excellent professional talent.

Shri Ilam C. Kamboj

Founder · In Memoriam, 2022

“Law must not operate as a roadblock. It must function as an enabler of sustainable business growth.”

Kamboj Law Chambers was founded in 2017 by the late Shri Ilam C. Kamboj — a distinguished corporate legal leader whose three-decade career shaped his conviction that great legal counsel is ultimately about enabling business, not constraining it.

As Associate Vice President — Legal & Company Secretary at Hero MotoCorp, he was the legal architect behind some of India's most complex corporate governance and compliance frameworks. He was also a Registered Insolvency Professional under the IBBI, bringing direct practitioner experience in corporate insolvency resolution to the firm he founded.

His philosophy that law must function as a business enabler is the founding principle upon which KLC was built — and it lives on in the firm's DNA today.
