Firm overview
Obhan Mason is a full-service law firm renowned for its expertise and professionalism and consistently ranks among India’s leading law firms. Formed through the recent merger of two well-established practices, the firm brings together decades of legal experience under a renewed, forward-looking identity built for today’s fast-evolving business landscape.
The firm serves a balanced mix of domestic and international clients across a striking cross-section of industries, including established business houses, global streaming and entertainment platforms, technology majors, pioneering artificial intelligence companies, individual inventors, startups, universities and multinational corporations. This breadth reflects the firm’s versatility and the trust it commands across sectors.
The firm’s Intellectual Property practice spans the creation, prosecution, commercialisation and enforcement of IP, with particular strength in trademarks, patents, copyright and technology-driven matters. The team includes patent attorneys and agents with advanced technical degrees who work alongside lawyers, engineers and scientists to understand and protect innovations in disruptive technologies. A dedicated copyright practice, comprising specialists with extensive experience in complex copyright matters, further strengthens the firm’s IP offering.
Its Corporate Law & M&A practice handles complex, high-value domestic and cross-border transactions, including acquisitions, divestments, joint ventures and strategic investments, while supporting clients on business-critical commercial contracts.
The firm’s TMT, Data Protection & Privacy practice advises clients across technology, media and entertainment on domestic and global regulatory frameworks, including India’s DPDP Act and GDPR. Its experience extends to publishing houses, broadcasters and international news organisations, covering licensing, content review, defamation, personality rights and regulatory matters.
