NAGPAL & ASSOCIATES® LLP was honoured to participate in All About Music, the tenth edition of India’s premier B2B music conference, held from 25 to 27 August 2026 at the Grand Hyatt, Mumbai.
The conference remains the country’s principal meeting point for creators, labels, publishers, collecting societies, platforms, and counsel working at the intersection of music, technology, and rights. Our presence there reflects the firm’s continuing commitment to Music Law, Entertainment Law, and Media Law — areas in which we advise artists, composers, rights societies, labels, platforms, and producers on copyright, royalties, licensing, contracts, and disputes.
Our Managing Partner, Sumit Nagpal, had the privilege of engaging with:
Mr Sanjay Tandon, Founder and Managing Director, ISAMRA (Indian Singers’ and Musicians’ Rights Association), on performer rights and collective management;
Mr Dilip Sen, music director, and Mr Leslee Lewis, composer and music director, on the practical realities facing composers and recording artists;
Mr Tarsame Mittal, founder of All About Music, on the conference’s role in convening the ecosystem;
Dr. Raghavender GR, former Registrar of Copyrights and a leading authority on Indian copyright law, on the continuing significance of the 2012 amendments and the challenges posed by new technologies; and a number of emerging composers and rappers whose work will shape the next generation of Indian music.
These conversations reaffirm a simple proposition: the growth of Indian music depends as much on clear rights, fair remuneration, and enforceable contracts as it does on talent and technology. That is the work our firm undertakes every day.
We thank the organisers of All About Music X for an exceptionally well-curated edition and look forward to continuing these discussions in practice.
