Recent developments, including the admission of a class action under Section 245 of the Companies Act, 2013 in Ankit Jain v. Jindal Poly Films Limited and its affirmation by the NCLAT, signal the early evolution of a class action regime in India. While historically under utilised, class actions are poised to emerge as a meaningful risk area for corporates, particularly those with cross-border exposure.

This session will bring together leading practitioners from India, the United States, and the United Kingdom to discuss the trajectory of class actions, with a specific focus on defence strategies, damages exposure, and practical implications for businesses.

The featured speakers for the session shall include Mr. Atul Sharma (Executive Chairman, Dentons Link Legal), Abhinav Vasisht (Senior Advocate), Louisa Caswell (Partner, Dentons UK), and Doughlas W. Henkin (Partner, Dentons USA).

This is a curated session intended for a select group of clients, including general counsels, in-house legal teams, and senior management. We would be delighted to have you join us.
