Joint Venture Consultancy India
The Companies Act 2013 defines the expression ‘joint venture’ as a joint business arrangement through which the parties that have joint control of the business arrangement retain and exercise their rights upon the net assets of the business arrangement. To put it succinctly, in a joint venture two or more parties co-operate and enter into an arrangement in order to run a business or to achieve a commercial objective. Such arrangements are formed across sectors and are more prevalent in those which involve technology, capital investment, or technical skills.
A joint venture helps parties leverage their resources, to aid in reduction of cost individually involved, while enabling parties to combine their expertise, and initiating mutual assistance to entering foreign markets.
