Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas (CAM) has appointed Shagoofa Rashid Khan as a partner and national head of the firm’s funds, investment and advisory practice.

She has worked extensively as an in-house counsel in the Indian financial services sector, holding senior positions at Kotak Investment Advisors and most recently at IDFC Alternatives, where she was a senior director and head of legal and compliance.
Khan has also had stints at Tata Sons, where she worked on corporate law matters and transaction advisory, and in private practice with Nishith Desai Associates, where she was head of the real estate funds and international tax policy teams.
“The funds industry in India, I believe, is at an inflection point due to interplay of market dynamics, increasing contribution from domestic savings, the evolving legal and tax regime, and realignment of regulatory oversight,” said Khan. “It is an exciting time to return to private practice by partnering with Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas.”
