A recent report by Khaitan &amp; Co., \u2018Foresight 2025,\u2019 states that legal agility will be key for businesses navigating India\u2019s evolving corporate terrain as regulatory complexities deepen across sectors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evolving Role of the Board<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As the regulatory landscape tightens, the role of the board is evolving from a shareholder-centric approach to one that embraces stakeholderism, which factors in employees, customers, communities, and society at large. According to Rabindra Jhunjhunwala, Partner at Khaitan &amp; Co., \u201cWhile buzzwords like DEI, ESG, and AI continue to be tested, the true challenge lies in how boards adapt and execute these principles in a manner that suits their unique business needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Focus on Privacy, Cybersecurity, and AI Regulations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The report, \u2018Foresight 2025\u2019 predicts that With the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) set to be fully operational, 2025 will witness a heightened focus on privacy, cybersecurity, and AI regulations. From the companies&#8217; point of view, internal investigations are becoming a cornerstone of corporate governance, moving beyond compliance checkboxes to strategic risk management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deal-Making Landscape in 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Looking at 2025 from a deal-making perspective, the landscape promises excitement but also a fair share of challenges. Geopolitical shifts and evolving regulations will undoubtedly keep us on our toes, but India\u2019s growth story remains resilient. According to Jhunjhunwala, \u201cAs we pursue the ambitious $ 30 trillion target, we can expect more cross-border deals, strategic partnerships, and innovative moves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evolution of Transaction Liability Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The report also indicates the evolution of the increased use of Transaction Liability Insurance (TLI) in the M&amp;A landscape. With growing competition among insurers, premiums have dropped, and coverage has expanded, making TLI an attractive tool for dealmakers. Additionally, regulatory changes in Public M&amp;A transactions, including a fixed price mechanism for take-private deals, are expected to drive deal certainty and investor confidence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Specialised, Sector-Driven Legal Solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom AI-led workforce transformations to the rise of transaction liability insurance, 2025 will be defined by specialised, sector-driven legal solutions,\u201d said Jhunjhunwala. \u201cFamily businesses, the backbone of India\u2019s economy, are undergoing a seismic shift, balancing legacy with the demands of a fast-changing corporate world,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SARFAESI Act Emerges as Preferred Route for Distressed Asset Acquisitions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The report also states that delays in Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) resolutions\u2014averaging 582 days\u2014have diminished investor interest. As a result, the SARFAESI (Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest) Act is emerging as a preferred route for distressed asset acquisitions due to its faster turnaround time and lower costs. \u201cThe trend is particularly evident in the real estate sector, where SARFAESI auctions are gaining popularity,\u201d says the report.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay Ahead of the Curve with ETCISO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stay up-to-date with the latest insights and analysis on India&#8217;s corporate landscape.
