Neoma Gupta likes to keep it simple. Unlike the city’s upper-crust girls who find comfort under blazing lights and stardust, this mother of two is most at ease in her black and white pant suits and arguing her cases out on behalf of her clients – most of whom are the city’s high profile businessmen, designers as well as educational institutions. From businessman Sanjay Passi and Ruju Jhunjhunwala to jewellery designer Riddhima Sahni, they all turn to Neoma when they need legal advice. And rightly so! She trained under the current Finance Minister and one of the country’s sharpest legal minds, Arun Jaitley and grew up being mentored by her father, Kailash Vasdev, a leading lawyer of his generation. “I assisted my father in the pollution matter when Delhi was under the worst spell of air pollution. He was amicus curiae in the matter. We are working very hard to see the stars sparkle again,” explains Neoma.
