An Overview Of Extended Producer Responsibility For Plastic Waste Management

India generates an estimated 25,000 to 30,000 tonnes of plastic waste every day, of which a substantial share, approximately 10,556 tonnes daily, remains uncollected and enters landfills or the open environment. To address this, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (“MoEFCC”) has notified a national Extended Producer Responsibility (“EPR”) framework for plastic packaging under the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016, as amended from time to time.

Emissions Trading And Carbon Credits In India: A Legal Perspective

India has pledged to reduce its GDP emissions intensity by 45% by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2070. The Carbon Credit Trading Scheme, 2023 establishes a baseline-and-credit system requiring energy-intensive industries to meet greenhouse gas emission intensity targets or purchase carbon credit certificates. This framework shifts India's regulatory focus from energy efficiency to carbon intensity, creating both mandatory compliance obligations and voluntary offset opportunities.

An Update On India’s Proposed Digital Competition Law

India’s proposed Digital Competition Law has evolved through several stages, from the 2022 Parliamentary Committee report and the 2024 Committee on Digital Competition Law’s draft Bill, through a 2025 government reconsideration, to renewed Parliamentary backing for an ex-ante framework in August 2026. Drawing on comparative experience from the EU, UK, and Japan, this article argues that legislative reform must be matched by a strengthened Competition Commission of India if ex-ante regulation is to work in practice.

Ratification Of Related Party Transactions By The Audit Committee

Few areas of Indian corporate governance have witnessed such sustained regulatory tightening as related party transactions ("RPTs"). The Companies Act, 2013, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 ("LODR Regulations"), and a steady stream of SEBI circulars (most recently the Industry Standards on Minimum Information for RPT approval ) have together created a framework that is both rigorous and unforgiving. The framework is built on a single premise: RPTs must be approved before they are entered into — not after.

Slump Sale In India: Can Assets And Liabilities Be Left Behind Without Losing The Undertaking?

A slump sale begins with identifying the business that is to be transferred and the assets, rights and obligations that form part of it. The bargain is rarely 'take all or leave all'. The purchaser may want the operating business, but may not want an old tax dispute, an irrecoverable receivable, obsolete equipment, excess land or legacy financing. This choice is commercially ordinary, but it can make slump sale classification more difficult.

The Variable Capital Company: What It Is And How It Works?

If you run a privately pooled fund in India today, you have probably run into the limits of the structures currently available. A trust, a company or a limited liability partnership can each house a fund, but none was built for one, and each leaves a gap. In a company, capital cannot move freely; returning it to investors needs a court-approved reduction or a limited buy-back. Further, none offers statutory ring-fencing for multiple strategies under one roof: protection between schemes rests on contract, not on the statute itself.
