Dear Professional Colleagues,

The Institute is undertaking a large number of initiatives to build up the knowledge capacity in the country towards implementation of the Companies Act, 2013 in letter and spirit and thereby enable the country to reap the benefits of the new law expeditiously. These include seminars, workshops and study circles, publications and guidance notes on the new law.

 

The Institute is conscious of the need to reach the masses across the country, which is possible, if the education is free.

These videos would also be used in seminars and class rooms for better understanding about the new company law.
