ABSTRACT

The corporate form of business has emerged as the dominant model for commercial activity due to its structural and economic advantages. Corporate laws play a vital role in regulating business entities while simultaneously promoting economic growth through transparency, accountability, and ease of doing business. This paper undertakes a comparative analysis of corporate laws in select developed jurisdictions namely the United States, the United Kingdom, and Singapore with India’s Companies Act, 2013. Adopting a doctrinal and analytical methodology, the study examines the evolution of corporate law in India, identifies gaps in the existing regulatory framework, and evaluates whether the Act effectively addresses contemporary economic and corporate governance challenges. The paper further analyzes global trends in company law, particularly in the context of increasing digitalization and evolving governance standards, and assesses the feasibility of adapting select foreign legal principles to India’s socio-economic conditions. Relying primarily on secondary sources such as books, journal articles, and credible online materials, the study concludes with suggestions aimed at strengthening India’s corporate regulatory regime.
