Uma Lodha & Co. is a peer-reviewed firm of Practicing Company Secretaries (Firm Registration No. S1997/MH019700), established in 1997 by Mrs. Uma Lodha, a seasoned professional with over 28 years of experience in Corporate Advisory and Compliance Services. What began as a sole proprietorship has now evolved into a dynamic practice of 10+ qualified professionals, united by a commitment to delivering personalized, transparent, and high-quality governance solutions.
From the outset, the firm recognized a gap in the market for flexible and accessible company secretarial services tailored to each client’s unique needs. Over the years, Uma Lodha & Co. has built a reputation for integrity, expertise, and client-centric service, attracting like-minded professionals who are equally passionate about promoting good governance and statutory excellence.
Today, we are proud to be trusted advisors to a wide spectrum of clients — from multinational corporations and public listed companies to private enterprises and not-for-profit entities. Our firm provides a comprehensive suite of services, including:
- Corporate Law Advisory & Compliance under the Companies Act, 2013
- FEMA & RBI Regulations
- SEBI & Listing Compliances
- Mergers & Acquisitions
- IPO Support Services
- Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)
- Representation before regulatory authorities such as the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Stock Exchanges, and other Central and State Government bodies
Our approach goes beyond compliance. We work closely with Boards and leadership teams to build and embed robust governance frameworks that support long-term success. Whether it’s setting up internal governance structures, undertaking governance audits, or ensuring regulatory compliance, we deliver practical, strategic, and effective solutions.
We believe that good governance is not just a legal requirement — it’s a cornerstone of sustainable business. As the adage goes:
“If management is about running the business, governance is about ensuring it is run properly.”
At Uma Lodha & Co., we help clients bring that principle to life.
We are deeply invested in continuous learning and staying ahead of legal developments. Our team regularly participates in professional seminars, workshops, and training sessions organised by the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) and other recognised institutions. This ensures that we remain at the cutting edge of regulatory change and can proactively advise clients in an ever-evolving legal landscape.
Above all, what sets us apart is the close, collaborative relationship we foster with our clients. We take the time to understand each business we work with — their goals, challenges, and values — allowing us to deliver services that are not only compliant, but also relevant, thoughtful, and growth-oriented.
