Handbook for Independent Directors

The sweeping changes brought by the Companies Act, 2013, revised SEBI rules and other regulators along with high stakeholder expectations impose great responsibilities and pose new challenges for independent directors in their discharge of duties.

Thought Arbitrage Research Institute in collaboration with EY presents an extensively researched handbook containing analytical review of relevant case law, academic studies and good practices from India and overseas, which is underscored by years of relevant and diverse professional experience of the authors and editors. The book is further enriched by the perspectives directors and other experts who have shared their points of view and insights.

This handbook is designed to serve as reference and assistance to independent directors, and is expected to be the go-to guide for current as well as prospective directors in their pursuit of upholding the corporate moral compass.
