The recently enacted 
Companies Act, 2013 (the Act), 
along with changes in the listing 
agreement marked a historic 
moment and beginning of a 
new era, which aims to improve 
transparency and accountability 
in India’s corporate sector. 
The Act outlines various 
requirements for governance, 
disclosures and enhanced roles, 
responsibilities and liabilities of 
the board, its committees and 
independent directors. 
Based on our experience of 
assisting several large Indian 
and multinational companies 
towards implementation of 
Companies Act 2013, we have 
faced several implementation 
challenges, which we believe 
are relevant for large number of 
companies in India. 
Furthermore, limited guidance 
is available from the regulators 
towards the implementation 
aspects of Companies Act 
2013.
