Fails corporation notability criterion
WP:NCORP due to lack of depth and breadth of coverage. Appears to be misuse of Wikipedia as some kind of vehicle.
I am also nominating the following related pages because the individual associated with the firm is equally non-notable under
WP:NBIO:
Keep - seems to be a notable firm. Described
here as being the biggest legal firm in India. Google news search of this company does bring up a lot of articles from reliable sources.

Keep both. To delete articles on the largest law firm (which was formed by a split in an even larger firm) in a country with a population of over a billion and its managing partner would rightly open us up to ridicule. I nearly clicked "publish" with a further comment here but have decided to bite my lip.

Weak keep for the article about the firm: The current article is little more than a corporate listing, providing the company's office locations and advisory board. Coverage can be found of company sector initiatives, though these fall under announcement-driven routine coverage at
WP:CORPDEPTH. As well as the description of them in the news item mentioned above, they are also described as "the country’s largest law firm" in
this November 2019 Reuters news report (the subject of which is followed up in
this subsequent report). The firm's origin is described in
"The Indian Legal Profession in the Age of Globalization", though that is more about the predecessor firm. I'd prefer to find more evaluative coverage rather than base a keep opinion on scale and routine coverage, but the sum of coverage is probably enough for
WP:NCORP.
