CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: A LEGAL AND ETHICAL FRAMEWORK FOR RESPONSIBLE AI ADOPTION IN INDIA

This paper explores the growing integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in corporate governance and its implications for India’s legal and regulatory frameworks. While AI enhances efficiency and decision-making transparency, it also introduces ethical concerns and accountability gaps. The study highlights how India's current corporate laws lag behind global best practices in addressing AI-specific risks. Through a comparative and analytical lens, this paper calls for urgent legal reforms to ensure responsible AI deployment that safeguards stakeholder trust, transparency, and corporate accountability.
