The Companies Act, 1956 had almost reached its retirement age after having been in existence for more than five-and a half decades. It was essential that robust and young corporate laws were introduced in the system. This journey began in 2008, when the Companies Bill, 2008 was first introduced in the Lok Sabha. However, it hit a road-block on its introduction in August 2008 and had to be withdrawn due to dissolution of the Lok Sabha. The Bill was re- introduced in Parliament in 2009 and was subsequently sent to the Standing Finance Committee. After considerable deliberation with stakeholders, the Committee presented its report to the Lok Sabha in August 2010.
