The Review focuses on a wide range of subjects including corporate governance, insolvency and bankruptcy laws, banking and finance laws, securities regulation, competition law, taxation, mergers and acquisitions, arbitration, commercial dispute resolution, and emerging areas within business and financial regulation. Through analytical and research-oriented publications, the journal aims to contribute to the evolving jurisprudence surrounding corporate and insolvency law in India and across international jurisdictions.
Published on a bi-annual basis, the CARCIL Corporate Law Review releases two issues every year, with one issue published in May and the other in December. The journal invites submissions from academicians, practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and students, encouraging diverse perspectives and critical engagement with contemporary legal and policy challenges. The publication seeks to create a bridge between academic scholarship and practical legal developments by publishing original, well-researched, and policy-oriented contributions.
The journal is managed and edited by a dedicated student editorial board functioning under the guidance of faculty members and experts associated with CARCIL.
