Electric Charging Stations To Become Mandatory

In India, traffic challans can quickly add up and become a significant financial burden.

Being hit with an unexpected traffic challan, especially if you believe it's been issued in error, can be frustrating.

Bharatiya Vayuyan Adhiniyam, 2024 (Act No. 16 of 2024) (the "BVA"), which replaced the Aircraft Act, 1934, along with the Drone Rules, 2021 ("Drone Rules"), as amended from time to time, provide the regulatory framework for drones in India.

The dispute in FW Aviation (Holdings) 1 Limited v VietJet Aviation Joint Stock Company1 has been decided through three substantial judgments of the English Commercial Court (“English Court”). Together, they address whether the aircraft leases were validly terminated, sums payable as a result of termination, and the extent to which damages could be claimed for losses arising from the condition, detention and delay in eventual export of the aircraft.

Opening an aircraft maintenance facility in India requires navigating three parallel regulatory tracks that operate on different timelines: airworthiness approval from the DGCA, land and airside access from airport operators, and duty treatment from customs authorities. This comprehensive legal guide examines the statutory framework under the new Bharatiya Vayuyan Adhiniyam 2024, the CAR-145 organization approval process, airport land allocation challenges, customs duty exemptions, and the state-level clear

Aircraft maintenance reserve clauses and redelivery conditions are the two provisions most likely to trigger multi-million dollar disputes at the end of an aircraft lease agreement. This article examines the mechanics of Maintenance Reserve Funds, explores escrow versus lessor-retained custody structures, and provides detailed guidance on drafting quantified redelivery conditions that eliminate ambiguity when exposure is highest.

Airline insolvency presents a particularly difficult problem for insolvency law because the assets most critical to keeping the airline operational may not belong to the airline at all. Aircraft are frequently held under operating leases. When an airline enters insolvency, therefore, the resolution professional (“RP”) may be required to preserve the corporate debtor as a going concern while the aircraft lessor seeks to enforce its contractual and international-law rights to recover possession of its aircraft.

On December 5, 2024, the Parliament passed the Bharatiya Vayuyan Vidheyak, 2024 ("New Aircraft Act")1 replacing the Aircraft Act, 1934 ("Aircraft Act"), with an aim to modernise India's Aviation regulatory framework to align with international standards.

Navigating through the busy streets of Gurgaon, Delhi, and Noida can often feel like a daunting task, especially with the ever-increasing number of vehicles.

On June 3, 2026, the Supreme Court of India’s AI Committee released preliminary draft of the Regulations for Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Courts, 2026 (“The Draft”). This marks a shift from scattered experiments with AI tools for translation, transcription, research and case management. With over 93,000 pending matters as of March 2026, the guidelines aim to ease processes for officials and citizens. AI could help reduce backlogs through automated cause-list preparation, transcription, research, and defect scrutiny, but its use also raises serious concerns.

A gift deed is a legal document that facilitates the voluntary transfer of property from one person (the donor) to another (the donee) without any exchange of money or consideration.

When an artificial intelligence system is trained on copyrighted news content, and later answers a user’s question using what it learned, has the law been broken? On 24th July 2026, the Delhi High Court answered that question, at least for now. In ANI Media Pvt. Ltd. v. Open AI OpCo LLC, Justice Amit Bansal declined to grant an interim injunction against OpenAI, holding, on a prima facie, interim stage view, that the company’s use of ANI’s news content to train its large language models (“LLMs”) falls within the fair dealing exception under Section 52(1)(a) of the Copyright Act, 1957

The change is effected through two instruments: the Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses) Amendment Regulations, 2026, notified via gazette on 10th March, 2026[1] (the “Amendment Regulations”), and a subsequent implementation order dated 13th March, 2026[2] (the “Order”) issued by FSSAI directing all licensing authorities to apply the revised thresholds with effect from 1st April, 2026.

Cybersecurity regulation in India has, until now, largely spoken to the entity that suffers the breach. The 2022 CERT-In Directions issued under Section 70B of the Information Technology Act, 2000 fixed a six-hour reporting clock on the organisation that detects an incident. The new Guidelines flip the lens onto the entity upstream of that breach, the OEM or technology provider that built the product in the first place. For the first time, vendors supplying software, firmware, cloud platforms, or APIs into India carry direct, time-bound, and independently verifiable obligations of their own and not obligations that are merely passed through a customer contract, but obligations CERT-In itself may enforce.

In mid-September 2026, government sources said Meta Platforms’ Indian operations, Facebook, Instagram and Threads, should no longer be viewed merely as an “internet intermediary” but should also be treated as a “service provider,” arguing that the company’s monetised algorithms actively decide what content gets amplified, distributed and shown to whom. That is a government position, not a new statutory classification, and this article returns to that distinction below.

On February 10, 2026, the Central Government notified the amended Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Amendment Rules, 2026 (hereinafter referred to as “IT Amendment Rules”), marking a significant shift in how India regulates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and synthetically generated content online.

India’s new labour code framework, comprising four consolidated codes enacted between 2019 and 2020, represents the most comprehensive overhaul of employment laws since independence. Among these, the Code on Wages, 2019 (hereinafter referred to as the “Code”) amalgamates the Payment of Wages Act, 1936; the Minimum Wages Act, 1948; the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965; and the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976, into a single, unified enactment.
