CAM Blog: The New Delhi Declaration adopted at the 18th BRICS Summit signals progress on customs cooperation and regulatory alignment, but its real test lies in whether it can deliver lower tariffs, fewer non-tariff barriers, and faster market access for exporters. This blog examines why India should pursue targeted tariff liberalisation and regulatory interoperability through the BRICS platform, and what a credible, phased trade architecture could look like, without compromising domestic industry or geopolitical balance.

Welcome to Passage to PE where we will unpack some of the most important shifts shaping Private Equity transactions.

🚨 Due diligence is no longer just paperwork.
It's where deals are won, negotiated, or lost.

CAM Blog: Two recent rulings, by the Delhi ITAT and the Delhi High Court, reached opposite conclusions on the same question: Who is the real employer of seconded personnel?

Although arising in different contexts, both referred to factors established in the OECD Commentary on Article 15 for determining the true employer but differed in their emphasis on those factors. While the Tribunal focused more on local control and secondees’ integration into the Indian entity, the High Court prioritised the secondees’ continuing relationship with the foreign employer.

These contradictory outcomes highlight that the taxability of secondments hinges on case-specific facts, making the alignment of contractual arrangements, operational reality, and documentation extremely critical.

As fitness trackers, smartwatches and other wearables continue to add increasingly sophisticated health monitoring features, the line between consumer wellness products and regulated medical devices is becoming harder to define.

In their article in indianexpress.com, our Partner Biplab Lenin, and Principal Associate Designate Priyam Raj Kumar examine how India’s regulatory framework assesses wearables based on their intended use, the growing role of AI-driven software, and the compliance considerations manufacturers must address as consumer health technologies evolve.

CAM Blog: Indian corporate governance law pulls independent directors in two directions. Schedule IV to the Companies Act, 2013, requires them to keep out of day-to-day management.

At the same time, a recent line of orders from SEBI and the Securities Appellate Tribunal demands closer diligence from independent directors on audit committees. The boundary between the two, the Lakshman Rekha, turns not on how much an independent director engages but on the channel and character of that engagement. Diligence is about the quality of oversight. Overreach begins the moment an independent director substitutes their own judgement for management’s in executing a decision.

A related difficulty concerns independent directors who serve as managing directors elsewhere and carry their executive instincts into boardrooms where they are meant to oversee only. The shift from an executive to a non-executive mindset usually takes years, and that lag is a complication Boards cannot afford to ignore.
