Corporate Law in India

Corporate law in India is governed primarily by the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made under it, together with overlapping regulation from SEBI for listed entities, the RBI for foreign-investment-sensitive transactions, and sector regulators that shape day-to-day corporate decisions.

The articles in this section examine the operational realities of corporate law for technology companies and growth-stage businesses: how board composition and committee structures should be designed, what related-party transaction approvals actually look like in practice, where the residual risk in M&A deal structures sits, and the compliance disclosures that founders and directors most often get wrong.

The objective is not to restate the statute. It is to surface the parts of corporate law that have practical consequences, and to ground each rule in a concrete corporate scenario, whether that is an M&A signing, a fundraise, a board reconstitution, or an internal policy review.
