Introduction : The increasing use of commercial fraud and the ease with which assets can be transferred across the globe in different International jurisdictions have transformed asset recovery into one of the most challenging aspects of commercial litigation. Fraudsters frequently with very much ease and less effort use complex corporate structures, shell entities, digital payment systems and international jurisdictions to conceal or dissipate assets before legal proceedings

Introduction : The international trade of refurbished machines and electronics is in a tricky middle ground. They are not new products, so it doesn't matter if the manufacturer has a list price. They are not scrap, therefore a nominal value or a salvage value will not stand up to the test. They are also seldom exactly like anything the customs officer has seen before, as each refurbished unit will have its own history of wear, repair, replacement of components, and depreciati

Introduction : A brochure is often the first document on which a homebuyer relies before paying booking money. Renderings of landscaped gardens, promised clubhouses, and the stated carpet area figures are often relied upon by buyers in deciding whether to purchase. When the delivered unit does not match the promised specifications - the swimming pool is gone, the 'sea-facing' view is blocked, or the carpet area is smaller than stated - the promoter is accused of false and mis

Introduction : Cybersecurity is now no longer an information technology (IT) issue, but a corporate governance and board accountability issue. A major incident in the cyber world can result in the ability to disrupt the business, loss of confidential or personal information, financial loss, loss of confidence in the market, and legal, contractual and regulatory exposure to a company. Rather than just a question of whether a company was attacked, the question is whether a comp

Introduction : In every discussion at the boardroom regarding artificial intelligence, the debate seems to end up at a crossroad. On the one hand, there is the need to embrace innovation, approve pilots, vendor agreements and experimentation to stay ahead of the curve. However, there is also a quiet, persistent concern about the risks and liabilities in case things go awry. This is especially so considering the risks that AI poses in terms of prejudice, brand damage and data

Introduction : A blockchain is the name of a digital ledger which safely and immutably records data in blocks which are connected in a chain. Since the data stored in the blockchain are immutable, all we have to do is to trust the data entrant. The blockchain technology is a new way of sharing data securely through computers and this is called “Distributed Ledger Technology”. The first implementation of the block chain was in 2009 in Bitcoin’s Public Blockchain. Blockchain te

Introduction : A building that is fully constructed is not, in the eyes of the law, a building that can be lived in. Between the last coat of paint and the day a family can legally move in stands a single, often-delayed document: the occupancy certificate. An occupancy certificate is issued by the local authority only after verifying that the building is actually fit for people to move into, with functioning fire safety systems, water supply and sewage connections, safe elect

Introduction : Data is increasingly becoming the main asset in a progressing share of mergers and acquisitions. Fintech platforms, health tech organisations, SaaS providers and e-commerce businesses are measured substantially on the power of the consumer, and behavioural and transactional data they hold, which makes the cybersecurity status of a target organisation inseparable from its monetary worth. The largely discussed Yahoo-Verizon exchange displayed consequences when a

Introduction : Domain names function both as technical addresses and as commercial identifiers. A name such as “brandexample.com” maUDRPy direct users to a website, distinguish an enterprise’s services and embody substantial goodwill. When another person registers a confusingly similar domain in bad faith, the dispute may require a remedy that is faster and more internationally effective than ordinary court litigation. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (

Introduction : The creation of pictures, videos, and music has been altered by generative AI. A person's face may be convincingly superimposed on another's body, a voice can be copied from a brief recording, and a synthetic video can show a public figure promoting a product or making a political statement that they never authorized or uttered in 2026. These technologies are suitable for use in creative expression, dvertising, movies, and accessibility. Nevertheless, they have

Introduction : When parties choose to have their dispute handled in a foreign location, they frequently assume that Indian courts lack jurisdiction. This is only partially accurate, and when it is incorrect, implementing a judgment or arbitral award may have disastrous repercussions if assets are stolen, evidence is concealed or destroyed, or the counterparty reorganizes its Indian presence before an award is rendered. Although it needs careful formulation to invoke, the Arbi

Introduction : Artificial intelligence is growing quicker than ever, however effective processors on my own can not assist the destiny of AI. Modern structures additionally want a green manner to transport big quantities of information among GPUs, CPUs, memory, garage, and networking equipment. This is in which silicon photonics is rising as a promising era. Silicon photonics combines the producing skills of silicon with the rate of optical communique. Instead of transmitting

Introduction : AI is now increasingly becoming part of the core of enterprise software products, from generative AI agents integrated into productivity tools to automatic credit scoring within lending platforms. Unlike a traditional software bug, an AI model could act exactly as intended and still produce a wrong, biased or infringing output because it is a probabilistic technology and not a deterministic one. This presents liability issues that standard software licence temp

Introduction : The RERA Framework The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) makes a significant shift in the regulation of India's real estate sector. Before the act, homebuyers often have to face delayed possession, diversion of project funds, and misleading commitments by developers. To address these concerns, the Act introduced several safeguards which aimed to make the market more transparent and accountable. It standardised the measurement and disclos

Introduction : Telemedicine practices have seen an enormous increase in their implementation in India in recent times. Virtual consultations gained traction during the COVID -19 pandemic, and have since continued to be an essential part of the healthcare framework. Today, many telemedicine platforms do not just connect patients with duly registered practitioners but allow users to conduct online consultations, receive e-prescriptions, maintain medical records, and book appoin

Introduction : Speed, affordability and finality are supposed to be the bedrock of commercial arbitration. When companies choose alternative dispute resolution over traditional litigation, they do so mainly to avoid the slow pace of the court system. In India however, a critical flaw in the statutory scheme often undermines this exact purpose. For instance, a situation where an arbitral tribunal issues a well-researched commercial award that happened to contain small, easily

Introduction : The notice of invocation under Section 21 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 ("Act") has always been a tricky one in the arena of Indian arbitration law as it falls somewhere between the strictures of procedure and the consent of the parties. The Section 21 notice is actually a formal step under the statute which will begin the formal proceedings of the arbitration, in particular the suspension of the Limitation Act 1963-time bar. Commercial litigant

Introduction : It’s 2026, and the way we live has been truly revolutionised by contemporary technology. We are surrounded by hundreds of these minuscule pieces of silicon holding billions of microscopic switches called transistors, which are present in virtually everything from your car, refrigerator and home appliances to your phone, your Wi-fi, the earphones you have plugged in and even the laptop you’re using to read this article. Considering that most of us cannot imagine

Introduction : The execution of conveyance deed by promoter and handing over of possession marks the real estate project’s transition from construction to operation and maintenance phase. However, for a considerable number of urban home buyers, getting possession is far from the end of troubles as they face prolonged litigation against real estate developers for disputes on post-possession maintenance charges. The home buyers’ association members identify the post-possession

Introduction : One of the most common corporate structures for repatriating excess cash to shareholders and reallocating the company's capital structure is the share buyback. One of the common reasons for buybacks is to boost the earnings per share, optimize the capital structure, create shareholder value or to reduce promoter shares. In contrast to dividends, buybacks provide shareholders with greater flexibility in capital distribution, in that the buyback allows the shareh
