About

Joysurjo Roy is a Senior Associate in the Mergers & Acquisitions practice at Khaitan & Co., Kolkata, advising on high-value, strategically significant corporate transactions including private equity investments, M&A and takeovers, joint ventures, franchising arrangements, fund-raising, and overseas and foreign investment structuring. A BA LLB (Business Law Hons.) graduate from KIIT School of Law, Bhubaneswar (2020), he has steadily built a marquee deals profile — moving from A.K. Singh & Associates and King Stubb & Kasiva to Khaitan & Co., where he was elevated to Senior Associate in April 2026. His recent transaction credits include the Texmaco–Rail Vikas Nigam joint venture (with strategic guidance from Senior Partner Haigreve Khaitan), the Triton Fund II Series A investment in SCIKIQ, and Sunteck Realty’s acquisition of Shreejikrupa Hotels. He has also published in the Indian Journal of Projects, Infrastructure and Energy Law on CERC transmission regulations, reflecting a thoughtful engagement with the regulatory dimensions of his transactional practice.
