About

Lupin is among the 10 largest generic pharmaceutical companies by revenue globally, the third largest Indian pharmaceuticals companies by revenue, and a significant player in the US, European and East Asian markets. Dr. Vivek Mittal joined Lupin as head of legal in 2009 and has offered key strategic guidance during its recent period of growth and consolidation. Spearheading the company’s legal affairs and related process framework globally, his activities include M&A, strategic alliances, in-licensing and partnerships, contracts, litigation, risk mitigation and intellectual property rights management. He is credited with having successfully reorganised and bolstered the legal services group by setting up and centralising legal affairs for the company. According to nominators, Mittal’s key strengths as head of legal derive from his sharp intellect and credibility when dealing with counterparties and senior business figures. This credibility has been particularly noticeable in facilitating some of the company’s joint venture and partnership agreements with much larger multinationals. Mittal is also a skilled tax and compliance lawyer – essential attributes in such a heavily regulated and scrutinised sector – and has helped devise litigation strategies for the group. Prior to joining Lupin he held senior legal positions at real estate and housing finance group Indiabulls and Reliance Retail, India’s largest retailer. Mittal believes that he is ‘always focused on raising the bar when it comes to service levels, the quality of delivery as well as success ratios while servicing internal customers‘. With Mittal having ‘consistently delivered tactical advice helping internal customers to grow their businesses’, he identifies Lupin’s growth trajectory as ‘directly linked to its partnerships and litigation track-record’.
