Paralegal — Land & Documentation | Vantrock Real Assets Private Limited | Mumbai Metropolitan Region

Not a trainee advocate role and not a back office. Land work in India is document work – records, searches, trackers, stamping, registration, originals – and this seat owns it, working directly to our Counsel on live transactions.

ABOUT VANTROCK

Vantrock is an independent real assets platform. Real assets only.

We start where we know the ground: logistics, warehousing and industrial parks, across the full chain – first mile, last mile, city-centre, dark-store and self-storage formats, and logistics-anchored mixed-use developments with distribution below and office above. From there, in sequence and only as each is delivered: industrial plots; suburban campuses, GCC and back-office space; strata offices; and, in parallel, data centres and senior living.

Two decades on this ground and a gap institutional capital left open below the 100-acre logistics park. The first phase: 10-to-50-acre parcels taken through approvals quickly on the founder's own capital and turned into 2.5 lakh to 1.2 million sq ft campuses – shovel-ready before an investor is ever asked to commit. Pipeline 10 million sq ft; ground breaks on the first 2 million sq ft in January 2027.

Three parts, kept deliberately separate. The founder's own balance sheet takes the first risk.

Vantrock Real Assets Private

Limited – the employer for this seat – is the development manager and operator, with its own board, team and governance.

Vantrock Investment

Managers LLP is the investment manager; its team underwrites every asset independently and answers to an independent Investment Committee. Assets enter a strategy at cost, with no founder premium, and the platform earns only after its investors have.

Vantrock was founded by Anshul Singhal, Founder & CEO, who has built three institutional platforms from zero and is building the fourth on his own capital. 52 million sq ft delivered (32 million as developer, 20 million as contractor), over 2,000 acres acquired, all litigation-free, more than 200 buildings, and two SEBI Category II funds run to a successful close. Delivered across the founder's three prior platforms. We don't hire roles. We build the platform.

THE LAND & INVESTMENTS TEAM The Land & Investments team originates, underwrites, structures and closes the land and platform transactions the pipeline is built from, and stays with each asset for its life. The legal function inside it is deliberately two people – a Counsel and a Paralegal. It controls land risk and turnaround across a national pipeline rather than doing the volume work: the country's best land practices do that, and the Big Four advisers do the tax.

Judgment, standards, dates and the file stay in-house.

THE SEAT

Reports to: Counsel — Land & Transaction Risk

Direct reports: None

Location: Mumbai Metropolitan Region — in person. Regular travel to revenue and sub-registrar offices, registries and sites,



in Maharashtra and to other states as deals require.

Experience: 2–5 years in land records, property documentation or a real estate legal team

Team structure, reporting lines, direct reports, seat titles and the hiring entity described here reflect the current plan and may change as the platform builds out. Compensation is confirmed in the offer.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

Land work in India is document work. Somebody has to pull the records, order the searches, chase the certified copies, keep the tracker honest, get the stamping and registration right, and know at any moment where every original sits. That is this seat, and doing it well is what lets one lawyer cover a whole pipeline.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

- Records and searches. Pull and organise title documents, revenue records, mutation entries, encumbrance certificates, survey and cadastral records and litigation searches; liaise with revenue offices, sub-registrar offices, search clerks and local title agents.
- The tracker. Keep the matter tracker current every day — every open instruction, the firm, the date promised, the date delivered — and flag what has slipped before anyone has to ask.
- Document control. Version discipline on every draft, execution copies, annexures and schedules, and the closing checklist maintained item by item.
- Stamping, registration and originals. Coordinate stamp duty and registration in each state, and make sure originals are received, vaulted, indexed and retrievable.
- The repository. Maintain the per-asset land file — complete, current and searchable — so that a lender, an investor or an auditor gets what they ask for the same day.
- Support the Counsel. Prepare first-cut summaries and comparison tables, assemble diligence bundles, take notes and turn them into actions with owners and dates.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

– Two to five years in land records, property documentation, conveyancing support or a real estate legal team — at a developer, an investor, a law firm or a title agency.

– Hands-on with revenue and sub-registrar processes: searches, certified copies, mutation entries, encumbrance certificates, stamping and registration.

– Meticulous document control and version discipline. You can find any paper in a minute.

– Comfortable in a records office and on a site, not only at a desk.

– Working English and the local language of the market you sit in; Marathi or Hindi is useful.

– Weekly, practical use of AI tools for summarising, indexing and comparing long documents — expected in this seat, and tested.

– Based in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

What this role is not

– Not a trainee advocate role,



and not a route to practising law here. It is a records and documentation seat, and it is a real career in that.

– Not a remote or back-office seat. The records are physical and so is the work.

COMPENSATION

Vantrock benchmarks compensation against the upper quartile for the role and market, weighted toward equity for candidates who want to build with us long-term. We discuss specific numbers in the first conversation rather than anchoring either side prematurely. Wealth creation is part of the engine, not only the salary: performance-linked bonuses and ESOP-linked incentives, priced to the seat and confirmed in the offer.

CULTURAL FIT

We're building Vantrock over a decade, not a funding cycle. We're looking for people who treat technology as the default answer rather than a supplement, who want to be co-builders of the platform rather than employees executing instructions, and who are comfortable saying "I don't know" and "I was wrong." If you want a defined role with defined edges, this isn't the right seat. If you want to help build an institution from zero, it might be.

AI proficiency and partner command are standing requirements in every Vantrock seat: you work fluently with AI tools and build on the platform's systems, and you command the institutional partners who execute the transactional work. A supervised AI Proficiency Test is part of the process for every seat, at every level.

HOW WE WILL ASSESS

One email within two working days of applying, with two links: six fixed questions answered by AI interview – about forty minutes, the first work sample, reviewed before the CV – and the Vantrock AI Proficiency Test.

Then: A conversation about the files you have handled

- A 45-minute practical test
- An interview with the Counsel — Land &
- Transaction Risk
- One reference from a reporting manager, contacted directly. Once we have your application, interview and test, we reach out with next steps. Your application is confidential – seen only by the Founder's Office and the hiring lead, and nothing is shared with your current employer.

TO APPLY

Write to [email protected] with the subject line "Paralegal — Land & Documentation — [your name]", and attach:

– Your CV. This is mandatory — a LinkedIn profile alone is not an application; we will read your LinkedIn as well.

– A list of the land transactions or portfolios you have handled documentation for — state, parcel, what you did, and the year. A easy table is fine.

– Your notice period and what you would need to see to move.

– One short paragraph: the document you always check first when a land file arrives, and what you look for in it. That paragraph matters more than the CV.

We read everything that arrives with a Deal Sheet and a paragraph — properly, not skimmed. If this sounds like your seat, write to us.

We don't hire roles. We build the platform. · Ownership, not employment. · Builders hire builders.
