CONCEPT NOTE
Corporate law is already an important area of law which is growing at an incredible pace in India. The focUS of the Central Government to bring in companies to play a key role in economic development of the country is reflected from various schemes undertaken such as the ‘Make in India’, ‘Skill Indig” etc. All these initiatives have increased the need of dynamic and skilled professionals who can cater the needs of these companies to smoothly establish themselves and contribute to the overall development of the economy. The recent Companies Act, 2013 had been enacted to further cary on this initiative of the Government and incorporate the recent trends in the corporate law. It has great prospects of development in the national, international level in collaboration with the government promoting various aspects in relation to the functioning of a company. There has been recent developments in the field of corporate law which paved the way for amendments and it is very important to focus on the impact and implementation of the same. Special attention should be developed for the North East region of India as it has great potential of development in relation to the corporate sector.
Corporate law as an academic discipline also has a great potential for the growth and research. There are varioUS regulators of company law in India namely Companies Act 2013, Competition
Act 2002, Limited Liability Partnership Act 2008, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016 and Chatered Accountants Act 1949, Indian Company Secretaries Act, 1980 along with various amendments and notifications. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs is mainly concerned with the regulation of various acts and rules in accordance with the law. With the advent of the concept of globalization, various other sectors came to be associated with the mainstream corporate law SUch as cross border business transactions, foreign direct investments, international securities market, international trade in goods and services, etc. Lot of research needs to be done in the larger aspect of corporate law rather than studying the same as a single area. Effort should be made to draw attention of the people to consider the corporate law as a vibrant area of research. This responsibility lies on the academic institutions to draw out different modalities which can develop corporate law asa subject as well as a vibrant discipline of research.
It is also a known fact that it has been a decade since the
Companies Act 2013 has come into force which is considered to
be an improvement over the Companies Act 1956. It was formulated to cater to the needs of the upcoming developments in the corporate and the alied sectors in India. This legislation has also gone through variOUS amendments and subsequent changes. At this juncture, it is also important to analyse the decadal experience of the Companies Act 2013 and how it is catering to the needs of the dynamic and ever increasing corporate sector in Our country.
