Company Law

Introduction to Companies Act 2013

The Companies Act, 2013 is the definitive, rule-based legislation governing the entire lifecycle of corporate entities in India—from incorporation to daily operations and ultimate dissolution. Moving away from the rigid administrative style of the older 1956 Act, the 2013 framework is built as a dynamic legal skeleton structured into 29 Chapters, 470 Sections, and 7 Schedules. While the Act establishes primary legal mandates, its practical execution is driven by flexible, frequently updated Central Government Rules.
