Regulatory issues are increasingly taking centre stage, justifiably so, as governance of business and addressing the demands of the citizens, bristles with competing pressures. As the Indian economy expands rapidly, the role of the regulators therefore becomes fraught. However, there are no easy options to address those.
One of the first principles to recognise therefore is to frame regulation as a strategic asset for the development of business, both from the point of view of the entrepreneurs and from the point of view of the citizens. The framing has legal, economic and governance implications. With this perspective Centre for Regulatory Governance (CRG) at the Jindal Global University invited Dr. Kapoor to have his expert suggestions. The closed door round table was organised on June 12, 2025 at Taj Mansingh, New Delhi. The initial comments were led by –
Mr Sudhir Rahate; Chairman, Airport Economic Regulatory Authority
Mr Randip Singh Jagpal: Member, Pension Fund Regulatory Development Authority
Dr Amitendu Palit: Senior Research Fellow and Research Lead (trade and economics), Institute of South Asian Studies (ISAS), National University of Singapore
Prof (Dr) Raj Kumar; Founding Vice Chancellor, Jindal Global University
