Abstract Effective corporate governance serves as a fundamental mechanism in ensuring transparency, accountability, and ethical conduct within corporate structures. In the Indian context, numerous cases of white collar crime—such as the Satyam scandal, IL&FS collapse, and the Punjab National Bank fraud—have exposed critical weaknesses in governance and enforcement mechanisms. This research investigates the intricate relationship between corporate governance failures and the proliferation of white collar crime in India.
The research analyzes the legal and regulatory framework governing corporate conduct, including key provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, SEBI regulations, and the operations of enforcement agencies such as the SFIO, ED, and MCA. Through detailed examination of landmark case studies, the research identifies persistent gaps in oversight and enforcement that have enabled corporate frauds to go undetected or unpunished. Additionally, it provides a brief comparative perspective with international practices, positioning India's approach within a global framework. The research concludes by proposing targeted recommendations to strengthen enforcement, enhance corporate accountability, and prevent future governance failures.
