Description
When the preceding (18th) edition of Ramaiya 's Guide to the Companies Act was published in 2015, several provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ("2013 Act') were yet to be notified. Now, five years after the 18th edition, when the entire 2013 Act has been made operational, this 19h edition is truly the first exhaustive commentary of the 2013 Act. True to its inimitable legacy, this edition extensively covers the march of law, both in India and other foreign Jurisdictions. The last five years have seen great many amendments to the 2013 Act, and also to the several delegated legislation or rules. When this edition is going to the press, the Corporate Affairs Ministry has extended the term of the existing Company Law Committee by one more year, i.e. till September 17, 2021. This Committee was set up to make recommendations to the government on issues pertaining to the implementation of the 2013 Act and the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. It is hoped that this Committee will be able to further strengthen the 2013 Act by reducing the number of delegated legislation, Frequent changes in delegated legislation cause uncertainty in the corporate world. There lore, the focus should be on reducing delegated legislation by providing more flesh to the 2013 Act This Committee has also been tasked with suggesting measures to improve the functioning of NCLT. However, as pointed out in the INTRODUCTION to this edition by Arvind P. Datar, Senior Advocate, with the introduction of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 201l6, NCLTS have been overburdened with adjudication of insolvency cases. Without uppointing more members to the existing NCLTs, the mounting pendency of cases iS surely going to cripple the system. This edition has been completely revised and updated by a team of Specialist Editors who, apart from updating the content, have also highlighted areas where legislative attention is required. uwioidw P00 fifa Despite extensive amendments, the legislature, unfortunately, has not taken into consideration several judicial pronouncements in the cases of oppression and mismanagement, which are of great importance in corporate disputes, more so as these decisions have been noted in the earlier editions of this legal classic. Useful additions/modifications have also been made to the general scheme in order to make the content more accessible and researcher friendly. In sum, this edition will surely assist all practitioners and companies, and sufficient care has been taken to make this an exhaustive Commentary of the 2013 Act.
