What Our Clients Say About WLRC
We measure our success by the confidence our clients feel navigating India's regulatory landscape - and the outcomes we deliver.
"As an API infrastructure company serving hundreds of fintech clients, our regulatory exposure is enormous. WLRC conducted a comprehensive regulatory compliance review of our entire operation mapping every obligation under the IT Act, RBI directions, and PMLA and delivered a compliance implementation roadmap that our engineering and legal teams could actually execute. Their ability to translate complex regulatory requirements into actionable technology and operational changes is unmatched in India. We now run quarterly compliance reviews with WLRC built into our operating calendar."
"The cryptocurrency regulatory landscape in India is unlike any other jurisdiction in the world - it changes fast, it is ambiguous, and the consequences of getting it wrong are severe. WLRC has been our compliance partner through some of the most turbulent regulatory periods India's crypto industry has ever experienced. Their clarity during regulatory uncertainty, their speed when enforcement action was imminent, and their strategic insight into the direction Indian regulation is heading have been invaluable. Every crypto exchange operating in India needs WLRC in their corner."
"We came to WLRC facing a chargeback ratio that was threatening our merchant account relationships with two major acquiring banks. WLRC's team was remarkable - they simultaneously managed the legal dispute with the merchants, represented us in the chargeback dispute process with the card networks, and helped us implement a fraud prevention framework that brought our chargeback ratio down by over 60% in four months. Their understanding of both the legal and operational aspects of payment processing is genuinely unique in the Indian legal market."
"ShubhX operates at the intersection of fintech and consumer lending - a regulatory environment with obligations under RBI, the Consumer Protection Act, and the Fair Practices Code that is both complex and rapidly evolving. WLRC built our entire compliance infrastructure from the ground up: loan agreements, privacy policy, grievance redressal mechanism, KYC framework, and digital lending guidelines compliance. What impressed us most was that they understood our business deeply enough to make our compliance commercially practical, not just legally correct. They are the best investment we have made as a company."
"MSS Payments is a payment aggregator operating under direct RBI oversight with some of the most stringent compliance obligations in the Indian payments industry. WLRC has been our regulatory partner since our licensing process - they handled our RBI Payment Aggregator licence application, built our entire AML/CFT and KYC framework, and continue to provide ongoing regulatory advisory as guidelines evolve. Their advance understanding of upcoming regulatory changes has been enormously valuable for our planning. We consider WLRC a genuine extension of our compliance team."
"When a former employee attempted to misappropriate our core technology and establish a competing service using our intellectual property, we needed immediate, decisive legal action. WLRC filed an emergency IP injunction within 24 hours, secured an ex-parte order restraining the former employee and their new entity, and then pursued a full civil and criminal remedy. The speed, legal precision, and commercial understanding they brought to our most urgent business crisis were exceptional. I cannot imagine a more capable team to have in your corner when everything is on the line."
"The Indian cryptocurrency regulatory environment creates extraordinary legal risks for exchanges like BitBNS. We have faced agency inquiries, customer disputes, and complex tax compliance challenges simultaneously in a regulatory framework that is still being defined. WLRC has been our legal anchor throughout. Their representation when we faced Cyber Crime Cell inquiries was calm, strategic, and effective. Their VDA tax compliance advisory has kept us ahead of Income Tax Department scrutiny. And their regulatory monitoring means we never face a surprise."
"Cashfree Payments processes billions of rupees in transactions across thousands of merchants. Our fraud exposure is enormous - from fraudulent merchants and sophisticated payment fraud schemes targeting our systems simultaneously. WLRC conducted a comprehensive fraud risk assessment of our entire payment ecosystem, identified vulnerabilities our internal team had missed, and helped us build a fraud prevention architecture that has materially reduced our fraud loss ratio. Their understanding of how fraud operates across legal, technical, and operational dimensions is genuinely unique in the Indian legal market."
"Our FIU-Ind registration was completed without a single rejection or request for additional information - a testament to the quality of WLRC's preparation and documentation. The process is complex and unforgiving of errors, yet WLRC managed every aspect with total precision from document preparation to portal submission to follow-up with the FIU-Ind office. They have since become our ongoing AML/CFT compliance advisors, and I would recommend them without reservation to any platform facing FIU-Ind registration."
"Mosambe serves small businesses and gig economy workers, which means we handle sensitive financial data for millions of users who have very limited ability to protect themselves from data misuse. WLRC went beyond checkbox compliance - they helped us build a genuine data governance culture through team training, product design reviews for privacy-by-design principles, and a breach response plan that is operationally real, not theoretical. Their approach to data protection is built on genuine ethics, not just legal minimums."
"As one of India's largest digital payment platforms, Paytm operates under constant regulatory scrutiny across RBI, SEBI, PMLA, Consumer Protection, and DPDP 2023. WLRC has provided specialised advisory on specific high-stakes matters where their domain expertise in cyber law and digital financial regulation was critical. Their rapid turnaround, their depth of knowledge, and their ability to coordinate multi-jurisdictional strategy across our diverse business lines are capabilities that very few firms in India can offer at this level."
"When we faced an unexpected account freeze by a partner bank following a law enforcement inquiry, every hour offline was costing us significant business and client trust. WLRC mobilised immediately - they had a lawyer at the bank within the same day, filed an urgent defreeze application, and secured the release of our accounts within 72 hours. Their pan-India network and their ability to move at the speed of a business crisis, not the speed of a typical law firm, is what truly sets them apart from every other legal advisor we have worked with."
