Anantharaman’s Lectures on Company Law & Competition Act is a legal classic. It is an original, authentic, dependable and brilliant work having a profound impact on its vast readership that covers law teachers, academicians, students, research scholars and everyone who is in any way concerned with the study of company law.
The author has been teaching law, especially company law, at various institutions and professional bodies for nearly three decades. Recognizing the immense popularity that his classroom notes commanded and the repeated requests (or demand!) from several students of ICAI, ICSI and ICWAI, made
this book possible.
This book will certainly help the students to prepare for the examination. After all, the best method to learn law is to learn the fundamentals first and go into the details next. The students always have to memorise details. If they can do this with little effort, they can get through the examination. And that is the immediate objective. The author simplified this mammoth legislation, by appending appropriate diagrams to explain some intricate topics, which will help students to understand these topics at a glance. Further, several topics have been redrafted for easier understanding.
This present edition, in addition to Lectures on Competition Act & Securities (Contract) Regulation Act, 1956 (simplified), also includes the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2006 relating to Director Identification Number and The Securities Contracts (Regulation) Amendment Act, 2007. This will be again useful for the students of the ICAI, ICSI and ICWAI and other professional courses. On Company Law, lectures have been revised as based on the present state of law as per the changes made by the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2002 and the Companies (Second Amendment) Act, 2002. The additional matter on ‘Law of Meetings’ on drafting notices and resolutions will be useful to the students of ICSI.
