He will take over from the present Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court Justice Naresh Harishchandra Patil who retires on Saturday.
An alumnus of Delhi University, the Chief Justice-designate, Justice Nandrajog obtained his law degree in 1981 and was enrolled as an advocate with the Bar Council of Delhi that year.

He was elevated as an Additional Judge of the Delhi High Court in December 2002 and in April 2017, was appointed the Chief Justice of Rajasthan High Court.
Chief Justice-designate Nandrajog, 61, has been transferred to Bombay High Court following a recommendation of the Supreme Court Collegium last month.
