AND FINANCE IN INDIA
PRESENTED BY:
UMASHANKAR UTAGE
2. INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC
Law is a system of rules, usually enforced through a set of
institutions. Law is basically the enactment or statute enacted by the
legislature. The principles and regulations formed to implement this
enactment in banking and finance are called Banking and Finance Laws.
The banking and financial industries are heavily regulated by both
state and federal law. These laws impose reporting requirements for banks
and other financial institutions, govern securities and other transactions,
and regulate taxes. In addition to affecting banks, banking and finance law
often plays a large role in mergers and acquisitions of corporations, stock
purchases and investments by both individuals and companies, and tax
audits of bank accounts.
The laws relating to Banking and Finance in India are administered
by the Finance Ministryâs Department of Financial Services. The mandate
of the Department of Financial Services covers the functioning of Banks,
Financial Institutions, Insurance Companies and the National Pension
System.
Thus through this presentation we will come to know about various
laws and acts framed by the Government of India relating to Banking and
Finance.

Banking and finance laws impose reporting requirements for
banks and other financial institutions, govern securities and other
transactions, and regulate taxes. In addition to affecting banks,
banking and finance law often plays a large role in mergers and

Many people find they need legal help with banking and
finance law when forming a new business. There are many laws,
contracts, and regulations that may dictate how new business spend
