Arjun Nihal Singh is a Partner at Luthra & Luthra Law Offices, Mumbai, and one of India’s leading voices in competition and antitrust law. With over a decade of focused experience, he has represented clients before the Competition Commission of India (CCI), NCLAT, various High Courts, and even the Supreme Court. Recognized by Legal 500 and named a Future Legal Leader by IBLJ, Arjun has built a reputation for clarity, precision, and fairness in navigating India’s evolving legal landscape.

From starting as an intern at Luthra & Luthra to becoming a partner in 11 years, Arjun embodies loyalty, resilience, and growth. His professional excellence is matched by personal passions—whether it’s golf, pickleball, or exploring Delhi’s vibrant food culture. For him, law is not just about compliance but about creating clarity, fairness, and impact.

Arjun’s journey is a story of specialization and loyalty. Beginning with an internship in 2014 that turned into a lifelong passion for competition law, he has built his entire career at one firm. Guided by mentors and strengthened by his own determination, he rose steadily from associate to partner, leading his own team today.

He has advised on some of India’s most complex competition matters, including a landmark multi-billion-dollar merger with near-total market share that required remedies and divestments to secure regulatory approval. Arjun also champions competition compliance programs, educating organizations on how to avoid violations and build sustainable practices.

Rooted in Delhi and an extrovert by nature, Arjun thrives on connecting with people. His hobbies—pickleball, golf, and food exploration—keep him balanced. If he had to describe himself in one word, it would be Unstoppable.
