An engineer’s precision, applied to litigation

Advocate Sudip Patra, founder and principal advocate of Patra's Law Chambers, Kolkata and New Delhi
Advocate Sudip Patra Founder & Principal Advocate
IIT Kharagpur · RGSOIPL IIM Calcutta · PGD Business Law Engineer by training Enrolled 2017 Supreme Court · Calcutta HC

Patra’s Law Chambers was established in 2020 by Advocate Sudip Patra — an engineer who trained in law at the Rajiv Gandhi School of Intellectual Property Law, IIT Kharagpur, and in business law at IIM Calcutta. That background shows in how the chamber works: every matter is reduced to a timeline, a set of documents and a list of grounds before a single word of the petition is drafted.

From NICCO House beside the Calcutta High Court and from Paharganj in New Delhi, the chamber appears before the Supreme Court of India, the Calcutta High Court, the Armed Forces Tribunal, the Central Administrative Tribunal, the Debts Recovery Tribunal, CESTAT and NCLT, alongside the district, sessions, family and consumer courts of West Bengal.

Established by a distinguished alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, Patra’s Law Chambers stands as a beacon of legal expertise in Kolkata & Delhi. Know more →

An engineering education before law school is why the chamber’s drafts read like specifications: numbered facts, verified dates, cross-referenced annexures and grounds that map one-to-one onto the relief sought.

Law studied at one of India’s few technology-institute law schools — the root of the chamber’s trademark, copyright, YouTube and cyber practice alongside its core litigation work.

Enrolment at the Bar, followed by years of appearing before the Calcutta High Court, the tribunals and the district courts of West Bengal.

Business-law training that anchors the chamber’s company, insolvency, tax and banking matters — NCLT, IBC, GST, income-tax and SARFAESI work.

The chamber opens at NICCO House, 2 Hare Street — a few minutes’ walk from the Calcutta High Court — handling civil, criminal, writ, service, tax, banking and property litigation.

A second office at Paharganj, New Delhi, for Special Leave Petitions, transfer petitions and appeals before the Supreme Court of India and the Armed Forces Tribunal, Principal Bench.

01Drafted like a specificationTap to flip

Every petition begins with a verified list of dates, an annexure index and grounds written against the actual rule or section — so the Bench finds the point on the first read.

02Two cities, one fileTap to flip

A High Court or tribunal matter in Kolkata and its Supreme Court appeal in Delhi are handled by the same chamber, with the same record — no re-briefing, no lost context.

03Tribunal to Supreme CourtTap to flip

AFT, CAT, DRT, CESTAT and NCLT are argued in-house, and the writ or appeal that follows is filed by the same team — the chamber is built for the full life of a dispute.

How a matter proceeds

From first call to final order — five stages

 

Consultation & document review

A call, a WhatsApp message or a visit to either office. You share the notice, order, FIR or agreement; the chamber reads every page before giving a view on remedy, forum and limitation.

 

Synopsis & course of action

A one-page synopsis — facts in one paragraph, course of action in the next — with the forum, the governing statute, a realistic timeline and the probable cost, so you decide with the full picture.

 

Pre-litigation notice or representation

Where the law requires it, a legal notice, statutory representation or appeal to the departmental authority is sent first — often resolving the matter without a court filing.

 

Drafting, annexures & filing

The petition, indexed and stamped annexures, affidavits and vakalatnama are prepared and e-filed or presented before the correct court or tribunal, with interim relief moved on the first date.

 

Hearing, order & appeal

Affidavits are exchanged, the matter is argued to a reasoned order, and — if needed — the writ, appeal or Special Leave Petition that follows is filed by the same chamber.

FAQ

Questions clients ask before their first call

The Supreme Court of India, the Calcutta High Court (Original and Appellate Side), the Armed Forces Tribunal, the Central Administrative Tribunal, the Debts Recovery Tribunal and DRAT, CESTAT and NCLT, as well as the district, sessions, family, consumer and motor-accident forums of West Bengal.

Yes. Send your documents by WhatsApp or e-mail and the chamber will schedule a call or video consultation. NRI and OCI clients are represented through a power of attorney in favour of the chamber’s advocate, so they need not travel for each hearing.

The notice, order, FIR, agreement or letter that triggered the problem, everything you have already sent or received in reply, and any earlier court papers. A short written timeline of dates helps the chamber give an accurate view on limitation and forum on the first day.

Yes. Special Leave Petitions, transfer petitions and appeals are briefed in Kolkata and filed and argued from the chamber’s New Delhi office, so the same team handles the High Court or tribunal stage and the Supreme Court stage.

Fees depend on the forum, the stage of the matter and the work involved, and are explained in writing before you engage the chamber — usually as a drafting-and-filing fee plus per-appearance charges. Where a matter can be resolved by a legal notice or representation, that is offered first.

Almost always. Writs, appeals, SARFAESI applications, service-matter OAs and consumer complaints all have limitation periods, some as short as 30 or 45 days from the order or notice. Contact the chamber as soon as you receive an adverse order so the deadline is not lost.

Yes. Disability pension, adverse CRs, courts of inquiry, discharge and promotion disputes for Army, Navy and Air Force personnel go before the Armed Forces Tribunal, while BSF, CRPF and other CAPF disciplinary matters are challenged by writ petition in the High Court — both are core practice areas of the chamber.

Yes. Copyright strikes, Content ID claims, channel terminations, impersonation and online defamation are handled under the Copyright Act, the IT Act and Rules, and the US DMCA for creators and businesses across India.
