Three rulings by India’s Securities Appellate Tribunal that could improve corporate governance
Three recent orders of the Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT) mark an inflection point in Indian securities law. Individually, they address disclosure lapses, alleged accounting manipulation, fraud under Sebi’s Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices relating to Securities Market (PFUTP) Regulations, initial public offering (IPO) fund utilization and interim relief. Collectively, they pose a larger question: What model of corporate governance enforcement is India converging towards—the letter of the law, substantive transparency or calibrated market pragmatism?The first ruling, in the Varun Beverages case, sharpens the meaning of disclosure.

Mint Explainer | How the US Supreme Court order blunts Trump’s tariff threat
Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. The US Supreme Court’s ruling blocking the use of emergency powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose sweeping tariffs has significantly narrowed the executive branch’s trade toolkit.

In charts: What tariff strike down could mean for US revenues and Indian exports
Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. In what could prove to be a major relief for nearly every country in the world, the US Supreme Court has struck down a significant portion of US President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, opening the door for companies to seek refunds for over $100 billion in additional duties paid since the announcement of reciprocal tariffs on 2 April 2025.For India, this could mean that nearly 60% of the export basket, which was set to face 18% tariffs upon the conclusion of the interim trade deal with the US, reverts to the pre-Liberation Day rate of around 2.5%.
