<h1>Corporate governance enforcement expanded: fraud investigations and statutory investor protections reinforced under company and securities frameworks.</h1> Investigations into alleged misuse of corporate structures and fraud have been assigned to the Serious Fraud Investigation Office and Regional Directors, while securities and company law frameworks enable enforcement through exchange levied sanctions, freezing of promoter holdings, suspension or delisting for persistent non compliance, and statutory enforcement powers. The Companies Act, 2013 establishes enhanced corporate governance measures-managerial accountability, audit oversight, disclosure obligations, regulation of related party transactions, director composition rules, whistle blower mechanisms, SFIO powers and auditor duties to report fraud-alongside investor protections including restitution via the Investor Education and Protection Fund, class action remedies, and expanded postal/electronic voting for key corporate actions.
