Ordinances are temporary laws promulgated by the President of India on the recommendation of the Union Cabinet when Parliament is not in session. They allow the government to take immediate legislative action but expire within 6 weeks if not approved by Parliament. Ordinances are equal to Acts but are temporary until approved, repealed, or replaced by an Act of the legislature. Acts are laws passed by Parliament or state assemblies while laws can take the form of Acts, ordinances, orders, by-laws, rules or regulations. Some examples of central government ordinances include amendments to customs tariffs, taxation laws, and prevention of terrorism laws.

Power refers to the ability to influence or control others and can take different forms like reward, coercive, expert and referent power. Authority is power that is seen as legitimate by both the ruler and the ruled, and can be rational-

Legislation refers to the process of making laws through a legislative body like Parliament. It can be divided into parliamentary legislation, which are laws directly passed by Parliament, and delegated legislation, where Parliament delegates lawmaking powers to other government authorities. Delegated legislation is necessary because it allows for rapid changes to laws by experts, helps address technical issues, and can be used in emergencies. However, it is also criticized for being less democratic and transparent than laws directly passed by Parliament.

The President is the head of state and exercises executive power, either directly or through subordinate officers. Though a ceremonial head, the President has significant powers including legislative functions like summoning parliament, judicial appointments, and emergency powers. However, after constitutional amendments, the President is bound by ministerial advice and has become a constitutional figurehead without discretionary powers.
CONSTITUTION OF INDIA
The President of India has both discretionary and non-discretionary powers. While the President exercises executive powers on the advice of the Council of Ministers, there are some situations where the President can exercise discretion, such as in appointing a Prime Minister in a situation where no single party has a clear majority. However, conventions and judicial precedents have established certain guidelines to ensure the President's actions are constitutionally valid. The President can also be impeached through a quasi-judicial process that requires a two-thirds majority vote in both houses of Parliament for charges of violating the constitution.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentation
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.
