New Delhi, April 2025 — In a development that underscores the rising importance of strategic dispute resolution in India’s corporate legal landscape, Aishwarya Kaushiq has been promoted to Partner at BTG Advaya. His elevation comes at a time when businesses — both domestic and global — are navigating increasingly complex legal environments and are seeking deep, commercially attuned expertise from litigation professionals.
Kaushiq has played a defining role in shaping BTG Advaya’s Litigation, Arbitration, and Dispute Resolution practice, under the leadership of the firm’s managing partners, advising marquee clients across sectors including aviation, energy, e-commerce, infrastructure, and data privacy. His portfolio spans high-stakes commercial disputes, cross-border arbitrations, insolvency proceedings, and regulatory challenges that often set precedents in fast-evolving areas of Indian law.
“Aishwarya’s elevation is a strategic recognition of his ability to not only navigate legal complexities but to anticipate business risk and design litigation strategies that align with larger commercial outcomes,” said a senior industry observer familiar with BTG Advaya’s work.
What distinguishes Kaushiq, peers say, is his full-spectrum involvement — from early risk assessment and pre-litigation strategy to courtroom advocacy and post-award enforcement. His ability to operate seamlessly across domestic tribunals and international arbitration forums has made him a trusted name among general counsels in India and Europe alike.
His appointment also signals the continued momentum of boutique law firms like BTG Advaya that are increasingly punching above their weight in a market once dominated by full-service giants.
Off the court, Kaushiq has made notable contributions to the country’s legal infrastructure — from helping redesign the Supreme Court Bar Association’s e-library to serving as Election Officer for the Harvard Club of India. He is also a sought-after voice in legal media and a published author on commercial law and arbitration.
At a time when India’s legal ecosystem is gaining greater global relevance, Kaushiq’s rise to partnership mirrors a broader shift — one where legal strategy is becoming as important as legal substance, and where nimble, forward-thinking litigators are driving the conversation.
