Suits:
Representative suit/action is not new in India ecosystem, Civil Prouder Code and Consumer Protection Act contains similar
provisions, for representative suit/actions. But both the enactments are not suffice to counter the oppressive acts of
companies and management thereof. Therefore first time in 2005, JJ Irani Report specifically advocated the need of such
measures under Companies Act, in parallel to counterparts (i.e. USA, Singapore and UK). Subsequently in
2009, it gained its momentum with "India's Enron"- Satyam Fiasco case wherein financial accounts were manipulated.
Thereafter in Companies Bill, 2009, class action suit was included as measures to be available with the Members and
Creditors of the Company wherein as per their opinion affairs of the Company are conducted in manner prejudicial to the
interest of the company, or its members and creditors.
