‍Laws and Regulations - Alex M., Whitley B., and Ilyssa S.
In India, the most important law that regulates all foreign exchange transactions including investments abroad is the Foreign Exchange Management Act (a.k.a. FEMA). It is an investor friendly legislation which aims to facilitate external trade and payments as well as promote an orderly development and maintenance of foreign exchange market. Under the Act, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been authorized to frame various rules, regulations and norms pertaining to overseas investments in consultation with the Central Government. India's laws came from English common law and are usually recognizable by foreign attorneys. Most laws have been on the books since the nineteenth century, as one of the founding members of the World Trade Organization in 1995, India was required to update its laws on copyrights, patents, and trademarks. India is often criticized due to it having many complex and arcane regulations, it is important that in some ways it is simpler than the United States. For example, most regulations are consistent across the country and attorneys in India can practice in any state of the Union. Filing lawsuits against one another is usually seldom productive in most commercial disputes due to court cases being able to drag on for decades and collections can go even longer. For deals that are Large enough, binding third-country arbitration (a settlement technique in which a third party reviews the case and imposes a decision that is legally binding for both sides.) can be the best way to resolve disputes.

[|India culture]has produce many products and services that are unique. The most common products in India are India’s wide range of beautiful and exotic gems, they are also well known for their spices. The [|Gem India Corporation]has been open since 1971; their slogan is “[|where trust is tradition]”. This statement proves that the Gem Corporation has been in business due to the fact they rely on ancient customs. Don’t exclude the fact that they have expanded the company from just making gemstone to a “wide range of inimitable products, such as beads strings, diamonds, and jewelry tools”. But they stick to old habits by paying attention to minuscule details adding to the reasons they have remained in business for 40 years. 

The reasons why this company has been in business for so long is a result of the owner, Mr.C.B. Gohill, from his beliefs, he instilled in his employees that they should be hard working, honest, and nice.Helping his Gem India Corportation become what it is today. Indian’s spices and the way it is used there, is what gives Indian food its character. Even though all spices are not from India, they are given the name “[|Indian Spices]” due to them being used in Indian dishes. The demand for these spices comes from the renowned reputation they have accumulated over the 7000 years they have been recorded over history in cuisine. Indian people use Indian spices because of the fact those spices are used from virtually every part of various plants and they can be preserve. This preserving can improve the flavor, and allows the spices to remain fresh for up to two years.

 The reasons why Indian people still use spices is because of the fact they are in poverty and these spices enable them to conserve them, granting them the ability to spend what little money they have on other things they need.
