Shreya brings extensive experience in advising both domestic and international clients across a broad range of sectors including e-commerce, technology, fintech, OTT platforms, e-sports and gaming, hospitality, healthcare and financial services. Her expertise spans market entry strategies, business and product structuring, data privacy and cybersecurity frameworks, platform terms and policies, strategic and non-strategic commercial agreements, consumer protection and soft IP matters. She is particularly recognised for advising on sector-specific regulatory requirements, and emerging risk issues and frequently interfaces with financial sector regulators and government ministries on legal reform and stakeholder consultation.

In the Payments and Financial Technology space, she provides end-to-end legal support for navigating complex regulatory environments relating to payments, digital lending, embedded finance, wealth and trading, virtual assets and insurance, among others. She regularly advises on RBI Master Directions, SEBI and IRDAI regulations, and the legal architecture surrounding KYC, market conduct policies, data flows, risk management frameworks, escrow structuring, merchant onboarding, outsourcing, and grievance redressal protocols. She has also advised on regulatory classification and licensing triggers in the context of innovative fintech products. In addition to regulatory strategy and licensing support, Shreya works closely with clients on enforcement risk assessments, RBI inspections and audits, and remediation planning.

Shreya also specialises in Data Protection and offers in-depth counsel on data collection, sharing, and processing arrangements, with a focus on both Indian and EU data protection frameworks. She actively supports clients on implementing governance structures under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, breach response mechanisms, and enforcement risk mitigation and preparedness.

Shreya’s telecom practice includes regulatory advice on licensing and compliance for communication services, IoT deployments, SMS/voice services, and cloud-based infrastructure. She also has a well-recognised practice in online gaming, advising platforms on monetisation models, user engagement, skill-based gaming laws, and central and state-level compliance strategy. Her earlier roles include working with litigators before the High Courts and Supreme Court of India, as well as an associateship with Clifford Chance, where she worked with clients and law firms across Singapore, the UK, and the UAE.
