Dr Avtar Singh’s Business Law has gained an enviable reputation of being the most authoritative work on the subject. An attempt has been made to capture the provisions of the Acts into topics, avoiding a section-wise narration.
Since the last edition, substantial changes have been made to the Companies Act, 2013 by the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2015 and Companies (Amendment) Act, 2017. These have been covered in this new edition. Further, it also covers amendments made to the Competition Act, 2002 by the Finance Act, 2017; amendments made to the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 by the Negotiable Instruments (Amendment) Act, 2015; and amendments made to the Partnership Act, 1932 by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.
