In what could be a breather to India Inc, the corporate affairs ministry is proposing diluting norms for rotation of auditors and audit firms for companies in the new Companies Bill. The bill will be taken up for consideration in Parliament in the ongoing Budget session.

Background 1. The Companies Act 1956 was enacted on the recommendations of the Bhaba Committee set up in 1950 with the object to consolidate the existing corporate laws and to provide a new basis for corporate operation in independent India. With enactment of this legislation in 1956, the Companies Act 1913 was repealed. 2. The […]
The new Companies Bill, which is likely to be tabled in the Winter Session of Parliament, will contain provisions to rule out a recurrence of the Satyam episode which shattered the confidence of India Inc, Minister of State for Corporate Affairs Salm
It has been observed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs that certain companies have been registered under the Companies Act, 1956, but due to various reasons some of them are inoperative since incorporation or commenced business but became inoperative later on and are not filing their due documents timely with the Registrar of Companies. These companies may be defunct and are desirous of getting their names struck off from the Register of Companies.
The new companies Bill, pending approval of the Parliamentary standing committee, is expected to be tabled in Parliament by this year-end, corporate affairs secretary R Bandyopadhyay said here today. “The committee will submit its report soon. The corporate affairs ministry will take some time (two-three months to study it) and we are hopeful that we will have a new Act by the year-end,” Bandyopadhyay told reporters on the sidelines of an event here.
The role of independent directors (IDs) on the board of Indian companies will be clarified in the new Companies Bill and their responsibilities will be made finite in terms of what they are answerable for, said Union Corporate Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid.
A parliamentary panel of experts studying the new Companies Bill is likely to come up with suggestions in this regard, said a corporate affairs ministry official, requesting anonymity. The development assumes significance in the wake of the government’s renewed efforts to quicken the share sales of many state-owned firms that are hamstrung by the lack of a requisite number of independent directors on boards. Market regulator Sebi’s guidelines require that 50% of a company board should be stuffed with independent directors.
The new Companies Act promising more shareholder democracy and tighter governance norms for corporates is likely to be enacted this year, Corporate Affairs Secretary R Bandyopadhyay said today. “We are hopeful that the committee (parliamentary standing committee) will be giving its reports very quickly… Maybe in the monsoon session… and the ministry will take another two to three months. By the end of this year hopefully we will have a new Act,” Bandyopadhyay told reporters on the sidelines of a CII event here.
