Sagus Legal has expanded its presence with the launch of a new office at Cyber Hub, Gurgaon, while strengthening its corporate advisory practice. The firm has also appointed Aashima Shrivastava as Partner and Head of Gurgaon for its Corporate, Commercial and Compliance Practice.
Sagus Legal announced two strategic milestones in its growth, aimed at strengthening its corporate advisory capabilities. The firm today announced the opening of its new office at Cyber Hub, DLF Cyber City, Gurgaon, and the appointment of Aashima Shrivastava as Partner and Head of Gurgaon in its Corporate, Commercial and Compliance Practice.
The new Cyber Hub office positions Sagus Legal at the heart of Gurgaon’s most vibrant commercial and professional hub, complementing the firm’s existing Gurgaon presence and its New Delhi headquarters.
As organisations seek more integrated and commercially aligned legal counsel, Sagus Legal’s expanded presence in Gurgaon further strengthens its ability to support clients on complex corporate, commercial, and compliance matters both across India and internationally, and reflects the firm’s commitment to being precisely where its clients are.
Together, the new office and Aashima’s appointment mark the firm’s continued investment in top-tier talent and specialised advisory capability, including emerging technology, AI governance, and digital commercial agreements.
Aashima brings over 18 years of experience across corporate governance, labour and employment, cross-border compliance, enterprise risk management, commercial contracting, and strategic advisory. She began her career in 2007, gaining early training and experience at law firms.
Transitioning in-house, Aashima held senior legal leadership roles at Boston Consulting Group, where she served as legal lead for India, South-East Asia, Australasia, and the Middle East, working across multiple jurisdictions on high-stakes commercial and regulatory matters.
She subsequently led legal affairs for the APAC region at Smiths Group, a global engineering and technology group, where she continued to manage and collaborate with leading international legal practices.
Across her career, Aashima has built deep, trusted relationships with premier law firms in the United Kingdom, United States, Singapore, Australia, and across the Middle East and South-East Asia, that will directly benefit Sagus Legal’s clients.
Commenting on this Shruti Kanodia, Managing Partner, Sagus Legal said,
“We are delighted to welcome Aashima to the firm. Her career path gives her a perspective that is genuinely rare. Her expertise will benefit Sagus Legal’s existing clients and bring in new clients into the fold with her excellent skills and exposure. Her deep relationships with premier international practices across the UK, US, Singapore, Australia, and the Middle East will be of immediate and direct value to our clients on cross-border work. Combined with her sharp commercial instincts and compliance expertise, she is an outstanding addition to our practice. In her role as Head of Gurgaon, she will also play a pivotal part in establishing our Cyber Hub presence as a destination for the most demanding clients and matters.”
Commenting on this Aashima Shrivastava, Partner and Head of Gurgaon, Sagus Legal said,
“I am thrilled to join Sagus Legal as Partner and Head of Gurgaon. Having worked with and alongside leading international law firms throughout my career, I know the standards that clients in cross-border and complex commercial matters expect, and I am excited to bring that network and experience to bear here. As businesses navigate fast-evolving areas like AI, data protection, and digital regulation alongside traditional commercial and governance needs, there is a real opportunity to deliver integrated, practical counsel that helps clients move with confidence. The new Cyber Hub office is a statement of intent, and I look forward to helping build it.”
