Background

About Manas Kale

I’m a transactional lawyer with a focus on Mergers & Acquisitions, Private Equity, and Venture Capital, where business and law meet. I work with both investors and companies across various industries such as technology, manufacturing, media & entertainment, hospitality, and consumer retail. My work covers the end-to-end journey of a transaction: from designing the structure of a deal and running due diligence to drafting and negotiating term sheets, SPAs, SSAs, shareholders’ agreements, and closing documentation. I also advise founders on matters like incorporation, co-founder arrangements, early-stage funding, and governance frameworks. I hold a B.Com from Pune University and an LL.B. from D.E.S. Navalmal Firodia Law College, along with corporate secretarial training from the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI). My prior and current experience has equipped me with a business-oriented, pragmatic, and client-first approach—ensuring that my advice is not just legally precise but also commercially effective. I’m driven by the opportunity to bridge legal insight with business outcomes, and I remain keen to learn, collaborate, and contribute meaningfully within the corporate and investment ecosystem.
