COURSE OBJECTIVES
‘Ignorentia Juris Non Excusat ’ One should know certain elements of law, which stand out like finger posts or danger signals. A general knowledge of some of the more important legal principles and how they apply to certain problems will certainly help a businessman in avoiding conflict with the persons with whom he comes into business contacts. Business Laws both regulate as well as facilitate the conduct of business. Therefore, the main objective of this course is to make a student of business management aware of the broad framework of business laws, which affect or govern business in India, as well as to understand both the legal impact and the legal scope of business decisions.

PEDAGOGY
The course will be offered with a mix of lectures and decided cases.
