Corporate governance refers to the set of rules and practices that ensure the effective and corporate efficient management of a company. In India, the Companies Act, 2013 lays down the legal framework for corporate governance, which is overseen by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and other regulatory authorities. Some of the key corporate governance practices in India include: Board of Directors: Companies in India are required to have a board of directors that oversees the management of the company. The board is expected to act in the best interests of the company and its stakeholders.Independent Directors: At least one-third of the board of directors of a listed company in India must be independent directors. These directors are expected to provide unbiased and objective advice to the board. Audit Committees: Listed companies in India are required to have an audit committee that oversees the financial reporting process and ensures that the company's financial statements are accurate and reliable. Shareholder Rights: Shareholders in India have a number of rights, including the right to vote on key issues such as the election of directors and the approval of major corporate transactions. Disclosure and Transparency: Indian companies are required to disclose a wide range of information to the public, including financial statements, annual reports, and information about the company's management and operations.
