AUCL is the brainchild of Mr. Akshat Khetan, who is a renowned corporate and legal advisor with
decades of experience in corporate debt restructuring and insolvency under his belt. He brings to
the table a unique fusion of experience-driven business acumen and an unconventional approach to
empower clients to conclusively address their problems. This operational tenet is fortified by a
firm belief in value creation, enabling him to facilitate turnarounds, whenever and wherever
possible.
Akshat firmly believes that any presented challenge can be approached with multiple perspectives and
strategies. This 360-degree thought process allows him keen insights that help clients implement
managerial, operational, strategic, and organizational reforms to realize the targeted results.
What further strengthens Akshat’s standing in the legal ecosystem is the fact that he does not
subscribe to any specific narrative with regards to India’s economy. He believes that economic
policies should be inclusive, encouraging, and enabling in nature instead of being prohibitive or
regressive in order to truly allow enterprises to accelerate their growth. Profit and income, he
insists, are variables that drive the generation of meaningful value for all members of society.
The strategic advisory services provided by AUCL helps clients to capitalize on opportunities,
mitigate risk and achieve desired business objectives. AUCL is an expert at including regulatory,
compliance, policy development and implementation, director’s duties and corporate governance, share
capital and other distribution matters such as share rights, redemption, transfers, buybacks and

and enforcement.
