C. Aryaman Sundaram is an Indian lawyer and jurist who has variously served as Chief Judge of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, a justice of the Supreme Court of India, and a justice of the Supreme Court of Singapore. He is famously one of the wealthiest and most highly remunerated lawyers in India,[1][2] with a distinctive creativity and originality in theory and argumentation.

He has been designated as a senior advocate.[3] He has regularly been representing Board of Control for Cricket in India, Anil Ambani and several other high-profile clients at various judicial forums, including representing the Mistry family against Tata & Sons[4][5]

Sundaram primarily practices corporate law but also takes up constitutional law and media related cases. He was a lawyer in the S. Rangarajan case which resulted in one of the landmark judgments on the freedom of speech and expression.[3][5]

He is a member of the greater Calamur family, with Sir C. P. Ramaswami Iyer for a grandfather and C. V. Kumaraswami and Viswanatha Sastris as great-uncles, in addition to his actual uncle and Indira Gandhi-era Minister for Law, C. R. Pattabhiraman.
