Aviation, Shipping, and Logistics
We represent airlines, airport operators, shipping companies, charterers, port authorities, aircraft lessors, and logistics providers in high-value disputes, enforcement proceedings, and regulatory advisory across the aviation, maritime, and logistics sectors.
Our team has advised India’s busiest airport operators on PPP concession obligations, aeronautical tariff regulation under the AERA Act, and compliance with directives issued by DGCA and BCAS. We also advise on disputes involving ground handling, slot allocation, duty-free concessions, and excise law intersections. In aviation finance, we act for lessors and financiers in matters involving lease defaults, repossession, and cross-border enforcement, including under the Cape Town Convention. We handle arbitration and litigation arising from aircraft leasing and maintenance disputes.
Our maritime practice covers charterparty disputes, cargo claims, demurrage, and marine insurance, including proceedings before admiralty courts and arbitration under LMAA, SCMA, or UNCITRAL rules. We advise on compliance with Indian maritime law and international conventions including SOLAS, MARPOL, and the Hague-Visby Rules.
In logistics, we act for freight forwarders, multimodal operators, and warehouse providers in disputes involving delivery failures, cargo loss, and customs enforcement. We assist in drafting and enforcing contracts under Indian and international carriage regimes.
With strong litigation, arbitration, and regulatory capabilities, we enable clients in transport and logistics to manage operational risk, resolve disputes efficiently, and navigate India’s complex regulatory environment.
