With fast-paced growth of infrastructure sector and given the fact that the sector operates in a regulated environment, complexities and their magnitude have become multifold. Many a times, it is increasingly difficult for corporate managers to take judicious decisions in business under circumstances often fraught with complex legal environment. On the other hand, law practitioners advising the corporate managers find it challenging to align their counsel with the business needs and constraints. This leads us to believe that the industry captains need a business manager’s perspective for growth as well as a lawyer’s eye for detail.

The course trains students in legal and regulatory aspects of infrastructure business. Areas like PPP framework, bidding and tendering for infrastructure projects, long-term supply and service agreements, dispute resolution mechanism, international and comparative laws etc. Business law is a course relevant to all management professionals as they need to be well-versed with the basics of Business Law. The course covers both theoretical and practical parts of legal practice in the business sector. It is aimed at imparting skills in protecting business and commercial transactions legally.
