About

Vijay Pal Dalmia is a Senior Partner at Vaish Associates Advocates, one of India’s premier full-service law firms, where he heads the Intellectual Property & Information Technology practice. He has been associated with the firm since 2006 and has built one of the most respected cross-disciplinary legal practices in India — spanning White Collar Crimes, Anti-Money Laundering, Cyber Law, Data Protection, Intellectual Property, and Blockchain & Cryptocurrency law.

He advises and represents national and international clients before the Supreme Court of India, the Delhi High Court, and other courts and legal forums across the country. His practice covers a wide range of matters including PMLA prosecutions, income tax and corporate crime investigations, cyber-crime trials, trademark and patent disputes, and cross-border arbitrations.

Mr. Dalmia served for five years as Additional Public Government Counsel for the Government of NCT of Delhi in matters relating to the Union of India. He is also a Registered Patent Agent with the Controller of Patents, Government of India — a designation requiring a separate examination that fewer than 1% of advocates hold.

Beyond courtroom practice, he is a prolific legal author. He co-authored the Indian chapter of Data Protection & Privacy – Jurisdictional Comparisons (Thomson Reuters) and has written extensively for international legal publications. He is a regular guest faculty member at the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) and has addressed international conferences on IP, cyber law, and economic offences.

JurisNode.com is his platform for making India’s evolving legal landscape accessible — publishing deep-research articles on every major area of law that individuals, businesses, and compliance officers need to understand.
