.............................................................................................................................
Description
Drafting Corporate and Commercial Agreements focuses on structuring commercial contracts effectively with a specific emphasis on issues that stem from the effective management and commercialisation of contracts.
The text is aimed at assisting lawyers, legal counsel and managers in drafting and structuring commercial agreements. The forms and precedents given are examples of drafting which should be used as a guide.
Counsels are advised to structure their agreements based on the drafts, but at the same time it is also important, to create drafts afresh using the forms and structure provided in the text.
The work aims to provide readers with an understanding of the major principles and approaches, to generate revenue by managing commercial contracts. The text not only highlights significant issues that are associated with contract management but is also an innovative analysis of important areas of business practice and contract management. The text is the first Indian resource to enter into the domain of commercial contracts such as share transfer and purchase agreements, project finance and intellectual property licensing and management.
