Parag Gandhi & Associates – One of the country’s Top 10 Labour Law Compliance Services Providers!!
It gives us immense pleasure to inform you that our firm, Parag Gandhi & Associates got featured as one of the Top 10 Labour Law Compliance Services Providers in the country, by the Industry Outlook magazine.
Labour is one of the biggest assets in any company, and it’s of utmost importance that their interests and needs are met and looked after. In order to regulate the companies, their employees and trade unions, labour laws are enforced by the state, as well as the central government. Although, with the changing times and globalization, more focus is now being given to the wellness of the employees and on due compliance with the prevailing labour laws.
Companies are now outsourcing these required labour compliance activities to firms that hold expertise in the field. This has opened the growth avenue for professionals who can provide these services to the client industries by carrying out compliance audits along with conducting targeted workshops based on their specific needs, and one such leading player is Parag Gandhi & Associates, based in Bharuch, Gujarat.
Parag Gandhi, the founder of Parag Gandhi & Associates, started his career 35 years ago by getting into a partnership agreement with a senior professional under the name of Trivedi Gandhi & Associates in 1987. This firm was later dissolved and Parag registered his own firm, Parag Gandhi
& Associates in 2004. Today, his firm caters to more than 550 clients across Bharuch, Dahej, Vilayat, Saykha, Panoli, Jhagadia, Palej, Kosamba, Vadodara, Halol and many other areas crisscrossing Bharuch, Narmada, Vadodara, Godhra and Surat districts. In his own words, “His firm is a one-stop legal solutions provider to their clients”.
Their services range from providing record maintenance to small and medium establishments, conducting compliance audits, legal advice to large units, representing clients before various government authorities/forums and in various courts, and designing HR policies & systems to suit their client’s specific needs, and everything else under the ambit of Indian labour laws & beyond.
Talking about the service expertise of the firm, Parag says, “We are market leaders in the field of labour laws. No other firm is providing such varied services as we do and that too all under one roof. We command this position for three decades because of the expertise of our in-house staff and the bandwidth we carry in servicing over 550+ satisfied clients”.

Roadmap Ahead
While reminiscing his remarkable journey of over 35 years, Parag also has his eyes laid firm on the future too. With his daughter, Mansi Gandhi, BBA-LLB and LLM, joining the business full time as a practising lawyer and a lead auditor, they plan to foray into the emerging business of conducting audits by explaining to their potential clients about its importance. Shedding light on the future plans of their firm, Parag also said, that they intend to strengthen their presence in the courtroom by bringing in fresh new talent so that companies situated in their area don’t have to scout for their representational needs from among the bigger cities. He also added that “With the possible implementation of new labour codes in the near future, it is the right time for companies to have an expert like us on board for proper understanding and implementation of the changes these new codes will bring with them”.
