Download or read book MANAGEMENT OF RISKS UNDER THE COMPANIES ACT 2013 written by Ram K Narayan and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-10-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hon. Minister of Finance and Corporate Affairs introduced on 6th March 2020 in the Lok Sabha, the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2020 {Bill No.88 of 2020}. In the statement of Objects and Reasons for introducing the Bill, she stated, inter alia that as part of the constant endeavor of the Government to facilitate greater ease of living to law abiding corporates certain provisions of the Act are proposed to be decriminalized to provide further ease of living for corporates in the country. Several provisions of the Act related to defaults which lacked any element of fraud or do not involve larger public interest were decriminalized. Yet the continuing “less serious punishments” are serious enough for the Directors to be complacent. There are still 26 sections providing for punishment under section 447 as Cognizable Offence; 20 sections attracting Imprisonment and Fine; 8 sections imposing Imprisonment or Fine or Both; and 1 section providing for Imprisonment or Fine. This book can guide those Directors who have less knowledge on the compliance requirements under the Act, its rules and secretarial procedures. It is believed that this handbook shall enthuse them to adopt personal risk mitigation measures such as good reading of the agenda papers, seek additional information from companies to prepare and effectively participate at the meetings and where considered appropriate obtain expert independent advice. The book will also be of value to the whole-time directors and officers of the company, candidates preparing for on-line proficiency test for registration of Data Bank of Independent Directors, company secretaries whether in service or in practice, CFOs, practicing chartered accountants while conducting audit of companies, lawyers, offices of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs such as Registrar of Companies, Regional Directors, students and teachers of company law in lnstitutions etc. The book highlights punishments under the following categories: (1) For Fraud under Section 447: {Cognizable Offences}. (2) Imprisonment and Fine (3) Imprisonment or Fine or Both (4) Imprisonment or Fine (5) Fine on the Company, Directors, Officers who are in Default (6) Punishment under Section 450 {No specific punishment provided under any Chapter} (7) Imprisonment and Fine -Other than Directors and Officers who are in Default (8) Punishment by Fine- Other than Directors and Officers who are in Default.

Download or read book Higher Education Stratification and Workforce Development written by Sheila Slaughter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work analyses how political economic shifts contribute to competition within higher education systems in the US, EU, and Canada. The authors highlight competition for prestige and public and private subsidies, exploring the consequences of these processes through theoretical and empirical analyses. Accordingly, the work highlights topics that will be of interest to a wide range of audiences. Concepts addressed include stratification, privatization of formerly public subsidies, preference for “high tech” academic fields, and the vocationalization of the curriculum (i.e., Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics: [STEM] fields, selected professions, and business) rather than the liberal arts or the Humboldtian vision of the university. Across national contexts and analytic methods, authors analyze the growth of national policies that see universities as a sub set of economic development, casting universities as corporate research laboratories and education as central to job creation. Throughout the volume, the authors make the case that national and regional approaches to politics and markets result in different experiences of consequences of academic capitalism. While these shifts serve the interests of some institutions, others find themselves struggling to meet ever-greater expectations with stagnant or shrinking resource bases.

Download or read book Total Quality Management and Just in Time Purchasing written by Hale Kaynak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the relation of total quality management (TQM) and just-in-time purchasing (JITP) with respect to firms' performance, based on theories from operations management, organization theory, strategic management and marketing. U.S. companies have implemented TQM and JITP techniques to improve their global competitive position. The lack of empirical research on how these techniques effect firms performance makes it necessary to explain their strategic values as management innovations. In this study, a cross-sectional mail survey was used with the target population of firms in the continental United States that have implemented either technique, or both. The results indicate that the extent of TQM and JITP implementation positively correlates with a firm's performance. Furthermore, the relation between JITP and financial and market performance is more significant in those industries that face high as opposed to low foreign competition. In this study, the validity of findings was assessed in four parts: statistical conclusion, internal, construct, and external validity. Each validity type is defined and its threats are discussed. Based on the findings, a revised research model is offered. The author also notes likely avenues of future research for theorists and practitioners.
