The very first penalty on the leading stock exchange of the country exceeding Rs.50 Crores was based on the investigation done by the Mr. Sharma. Subsequently, when there were allegations of future trading and guar gum and other similar commodities, for saving the enterprises from huge fines, the Firm was the natural choice for representing these companies.

As one of the most landmark cases in Indian competition law history, a penalty of Rs. 672 Crores imposed on the four Public Sector Insurance Companies, on the basis of documentary evidence of cartelisation. With diligent arguments, this penalty was successfully struck off and reduced to Rs. 2 Crores.
