ELP Knowledge Series – India Update Part 1 of 2018

‘India Update – Part 1 of 2018” is the latest addition to the ELP Knowledge Series.

This document is intended to keep you updated on the latest legal, policy and regulatory developments in India. While many such developments have ramifications across sectors, an equally significant number pertains to specific industry sectors. It is our endeavour to short-list, collate and analyse the available data in order to curate information that provides a succinct overview of selected topics and issues.

Many developments over the recent past – especially regarding the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, data privacy and liability concerns stemming from GDPR, ramifications of the Kotak Committee report for corporate governance in the country, etc. – have forced companies to revisit several fundamental aspects of their operations and corporate structures. We have presented detailed analysis of these topics. Additionally, we have also added a section discussing renewed foreign interest in India’s
defense & aerospace sector.

The document also examines the inherent challenges in enforcing foreign arbitration awards in India and the post-GST judicial pronouncements that are shaping the country’s indirect tax landscape. We conclude by summarising the latest trends in anti-dumping investigations in India and notable developments in our competition laws framework.

We hope you will find the information contained in the subsequent sections to be helpful. For any clarification or further information, please reach out to your point of contact at ELP or any member of our team who has contributed to this iteration of the ‘India Update’.
