General Corporate & Corporate Governance
General corporate and governance work forms a core part of what Indicus Legal is equipped to handle. Our founders bring a thorough grounding in corporate law, regulatory frameworks, and business structuring — and this practice area reflects that foundation. We are well-positioned to assist businesses, founders, and directors with the legal groundwork of running a compliant and well-governed enterprise in India.
Advising Directors on Corporate Governance and Shareholder Disputes
Corporate governance is an area where clarity of legal obligation matters enormously — and where directors are often under-advised. Our understanding of the Companies Act, 2013 and SEBI’s listing and disclosure framework enables us to provide directors and boards with clear, practical guidance on their fiduciary duties, related party transaction requirements, board procedures, and disclosure obligations. Where shareholder disputes arise — including minority protection actions — we are equipped to advise on both the legal position and the strategic options available.
Advisory on Setting Up and Operating a Business in India
Setting up a business in India involves navigating a layered set of legal, regulatory, and structural decisions that are often more complex than they first appear. With experience across corporate structuring, FDI compliance under FEMA and the FDI Policy, and the negotiation of foundational commercial agreements, we are in a position to guide domestic and foreign investors through this process methodically — helping them get the structure right from the outset rather than correct it later.
Compliance — Companies Act, Securities Laws & FEMA
Regulatory compliance under the Companies Act, 2013, SEBI regulations, and FEMA is an area where many businesses — particularly growing ones — find themselves exposed simply due to the volume and complexity of applicable requirements. We are well-versed in these frameworks and can assist companies in putting in place the processes and documentation necessary to meet their compliance obligations, covering annual filings, statutory records, board and general meeting requirements, and RBI reporting on foreign investment.
