Markets need freedom, broadly, at three stages of a business - to start a business (free entry), to continue the business (free competition) and to discontinue the business (free exit), said the ministry.

Justice Ashok Bhushan Chairperson, National Company Law Appellate Tribunal will grace the occasion as Chief Guest, said the ministry.

Rajesh Verma, Secretary, Ministry of Corporate Affairs; Ashok Kumar Gupta, Chairperson, Competition Commission of India; and Praveen Kumar, DG & CEO, Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs will be the Guests of Honour at the event.
