Joining the conversation are Dheeraj Nair and Hormuz Mehta, Partners at JSA Advocates & Solicitors, who share insights from their frontline experience with regulatory investigations and enforcement matters involving agencies such as the ED, CBI, and SFIO. The discussion looks at the rise of deepfakes, cyber fraud, digital identity theft, and cross-border money trails while also examining how many governance failures still come down to weak internal controls, delayed response systems, and the lack of proactive oversight within companies. Together, these insights offer a grounded perspective on how Indian businesses and institutions must evolve to build resilience, trust, and accountability on the road to 2047.
