Abstract

Indian corporate ownership does not resemble the diffuse, market-driven structures that classical corporate governance theory was built around. Promoter and promoter-group holdings continue to account for the single largest block of ownership across listed companies, with private promoters alone holding over 40% of total market capitalisation on the NSE as of late 2023. This concentration is not incidental; it is the structural condition that determines how Indian companies are actually governed, and it is precisely what makes related party transactions ("RPTs") a uniquely Indian governance problem rather than a peripheral compliance category.
