Our Story
The Advocate Who Made Drug Law His Life's Work
Advocate Srijan Tiwari. Delhi High Court. Exclusive drug and cosmetics litigation since 2010. This is not a practice area — it is a calling.
The Foundation
Built on a Single Conviction: Specialisation Wins Cases
In 2010, when Advocate Srijan Tiwari set up his practice at Delhi High Court, he made a decision that most lawyers considered unnecessarily limiting: he would handle only drug and cosmetics litigation. No property disputes. No consumer cases. No criminal law. Only the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 — and everything that flows from it.
That decision has proven prescient. India's pharmaceutical industry has grown into one of the world's largest, and with it has come an exponential increase in regulatory enforcement — state drug authorities conducting raids, CDSCO issuing quality alerts, NSQ prosecutions filing by the dozen across Delhi district courts. Corporate legal departments needed someone who lived and breathed this law.
Over 14 years, what began as a sole practice has grown into a team of 10+ legal professionals — all dedicated exclusively to drug and cosmetics law. The firm has been involved in cases that shaped how NSQ prosecutions are defended in Delhi, successfully argued challenges to arbitrary regulatory orders at the Delhi High Court, and built a reputation as the first call that pharmaceutical corporate legal teams make when a crisis hits.
The firm's client roster reads like a who's who of Indian and multinational pharmaceutical and cosmetics companies operating in Delhi and across India — yet every matter is handled with the same rigour as the first case. That consistency is the foundation of Advocate Tiwari's reputation.
What does Advocate Srijan Tiwari specialise in?
Advocate Srijan Tiwari specialises exclusively in drug and cosmetics litigation under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. He handles NSQ (Not of Standard Quality) prosecutions, regulatory disputes with drug authorities, Delhi High Court challenges, and corporate pharmaceutical compliance advisory — serving only pharmaceutical and cosmetics corporations.

Local Knowledge
Why Delhi is the Epicentre of Drug Law Litigation in India
Delhi is not just India's capital — it is the nucleus of pharmaceutical regulatory power. CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation) is headquartered here. The Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) operates from here. And the Delhi High Court is the first judicial forum for challenging any central drug regulatory decision.
For pharmaceutical companies facing central-level enforcement actions — banned drug orders, quality alerts, import restrictions, or manufacturing licence suspension — Delhi is where the legal battle must be fought. And being here for 14 years, we know every procedural nuance, every relevant precedent, and every regulatory personality involved.
Our proximity to Okhla, Wazirpur, Narela, and Bawana — Delhi's pharmaceutical manufacturing clusters — means we understand the operational realities of pharmaceutical production that are critical context in litigation. That local commercial intelligence is something you simply cannot get from a firm based elsewhere.
