Artificial Intelligence (AI) has undeniably revolutionized myriad aspects of human life, spanning technology usage, industrial operations, education, data management, healthcare, and national governance. However, this revolution comes with its own set of challenges, particularly concerning the regulation of data dissemination, storage, and creation. The transformative impact of AI across various sectors has sparked concerns over these issues. While the EU has introduced the pioneering AI Act of 2021, India currently lacks AI-specific legislation. While the EU has proactively sought to address these challenges through comprehensive legislation, India's current regulatory measures, including the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, fall short of directly addressing the multifaceted risks associated with AI. This research paper sets out to explore the regulatory frameworks governing the risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI) usage, focusing on a comparative analysis between India and the European Union (EU). It is time for India to integrate AI-specific provisions to effectively address the nuanced risks presented by AI. By adopting a more focused and stringent regulatory framework, both regions can ensure the ethical and safe deployment of AI, thereby safeguarding against the potential adverse impacts of this transformative technology.

Forensic science is an occupational field that is inextricably rooted in the essence of criminal legislature and operates within the boundaries of the legal system and may make a significant contribution to advancing justice in criminal investigations and other severe transgressions. Although India has established significant precedents to demonstrate the validity of these forensic examination, they breach the accused's fundamental rights against self-incrimination, health and privacy The legal standing of scientific tests like as polygraph, P-300, and narco analysis is being questioned since these tests have recently received judicial acceptances that they did not previously obtain. While the tests may be a practical necessity, there is an exigency for serious consideration regarding it procedural, constitutional and medico-legal legitimacy from the standpoint of human rights.

Forensic science is usually defined as the application of science to the process of investigation. The forensic scientists use their knowledge and skills to collect, analyze, and interpret evidence to provide information that can be used in the court of law.

Artificial Intelligence has a huge impact in all the developed and even developing nations. In every field, its use has been increasing day by day. In legal area, its use hasn’t been accepted in large number like other work field. In view of the current use of Artificial Intelligence, it can be easily said that very soon it will be accepted widely. Efficiency, time saving, cost saving, automatic repetitive task, reducing risks, accurate legal searching and findings are some its advantages. Through Artificial Intelligence, legal research can be improved, paper work duty can be solved and proper data can be received. Though Artificial Intelligence has both advantages and disadvantages of its own, Artificial Intelligence should be used very carefully. Legal practitioners and judges should be aware of its use. Law firms are more open minded in its acceptance so that their human labour can be reduced, time can be saved and most importantly money can be saved. In India, its acceptance by all lawyers and law students will take some more time. In the field of Artificial Intelligence, the most relevant legislation operating AI systems is Information Technology Act, 2000. But India needs a comprehensive legislating which will be dealing with AI. Lack of statutes governing in this area, lack of guidelines by government, issues relating to Intellectual Property Rights creates hindrance in proper working of Artificial Intelligence even in the area of legal services.

The global business landscape is dominated by multinational enterprises (MNEs) with intricate networks of subsidiaries operating across borders. This interconnectedness presents a unique challenge as how to determine the appropriate price for goods and services exchanged internally between these affiliated entities. This is where the concept of transfer pricing comes into play. Transfer pricing refers to the process of establishing prices for transactions between related parties under common control. Unlike typical market transactions, these internal transfers lack the arm's length principle, where unrelated buyers and sellers negotiate a fair price based on market forces.The revenue of both parties to a cross-border transaction is ascertained via transfer pricing. Therefore, the tax bases of the nations involved in cross-border transactions tend to be shaped by the transfer price. In business economics, a transfer price is defined as the price that one division of an organization charges another division of the same organization for a good or service that the former division provides. Recognizing the potential for profit shifting, governments around the world have implemented transfer pricing regulations based on the OECD's arm's length principle. Tax authorities closely scrutinize transfer pricing practices to ensure compliance and collect their fair share of tax revenue. This has led to increased international cooperation and efforts to establish standardized transfer pricing guidelines.

The phrase 'The World is one family' symbolizes the significance of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and underscores the interdependence among the 17 specified goals, aiming for global balance and peace. In light of current global events and resulting conflicts, the protection of the environment and strides toward sustainability emerge as paramount considerations in all human endeavors, particularly in trade. Trade, as a fundamental driver of globalization and transformation, assumes a crucial role in striving toward the benchmarks of Sustainable Development Goals. Consequently, Environmental Corporate Social Responsibility (ECSR) policies are posited to exert a considerable influence on the achievement of SDGs . This paper aims to scrutinize the implementation of ECSR policies in aligning with the United Nations' SDGs and their pertinence to international trade activities through the examination of various reports and secondary data sources. Global trade has expanded its scope for the exchange of goods and services due to globalization, yet it also contributes to inequitable circumstances among different groups, disparate resource allocations across communities, limited accessibility and opportunities, and environmental harm resulting from various trade activities. Recent events, such as warfare and pandemics, have highlighted globally shared vulnerabilities, reinforcing the notion that a threat to security or health in one part of the world can imperil the entire globe. Moreover, measures implemented in one region for safety and health purposes can propagate worldwide, underlining the concept of 'humans' as a unified global community. This paper provides an analysis of the implementation, significance, and impact of ECSR policies in international trade, examining their interconnectedness with the SDG 2030 agenda.

This article analyses the e-gaming taxation regime of India and points out a few fundamental flaws with the same. It recognizes the government’s wish to increase the impetus for the growth of the industry but argues that due to the taxation regime set up by the government itself which imposes huge amounts of tax burden on the industry, the said objective becomes impractical to materialize. Firstly, it introduces the problem at hand and then builds up to criticize the immense taxation burden that could be induced by the complete implementation of the GST council which states to tax the games based on skill and chance in the same bracket and points out decades of jurisprudence in contravention of the said recommendation of the council. Secondly, it starts to examine the newly introduced provisions of the Income Tax Act which are sections 115BBJ and section 194BA, and critiques the functional appropriateness of the said provisions, it criticizes section 194BA on the grounds of ambiguity in determining net winnings liable to be taxed from the financial year, thirdly it finds flaws in section 115BBJ on the grounds of its possible faulty application while calculating the gross prize money The article provides an instance of such over-taxations by giving the example of the DeltaCorp case and then concludes by asserting that due to such huge taxation pressure, the e-gaming industry will not be able to survive properly let alone grow hence the taxation regime being self-defeatist in nature and makes a case for decreased taxation pressure on the industry while simultaneously promoting dialogue as a possible solution for the problem.

The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) debate in India embodies the nation's quest for justice, equality, and secularism within its diverse socio-cultural landscape. This research paper explores the historical evolution, constitutional framework, debates, impact on gender equality, legal and practical challenges, international perspectives, and future prospects of the UCC. From colonial legacies to contemporary judicial pronouncements, efforts to enact uniform laws governing civil matters have sparked contentious debates and raised fundamental questions about the balance between religious freedoms and individual rights. Legislative reforms such as the Hindu Succession Act and landmark judgments like the Shah Bano case have sought to address gender disparities and promote equality within the legal framework. However, significant challenges remain in reconciling religious traditions with the imperatives of justice and equality, as evidenced by resistance from conservative quarters and administrative complexities. International perspectives offer valuable insights into approaches to family law and personal status in diverse cultural contexts, informing recommendations for inclusive dialogue, gender-responsive legal reforms, and capacity-building initiatives. As India navigates the complexities of the UCC debate, the future prospects for a more just and equitable legal framework depend on concerted efforts to engage stakeholders, foster consensus, and uphold the principles of human rights and social justice for all citizens.

The paper delves into the legal intricacies and challenges posed by cybersquatting within the Indian intellectual property framework, particularly focusing on its implications for trademark protection. Cybersquatting involves the registration of domain names that closely resemble well-established trademarks, exploiting their goodwill for financial gain. This raises significant legal dilemmas due to the absence of tailored legislation in India. The study explores various manifestations of cybersquatting, such as typosquatting and identity theft, emphasizing their detrimental effects on brand integrity and consumer trust. The analysis evaluates the adequacy of existing legal mechanisms, including the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act, which currently fail to comprehensively address the complexities of cybersquatting. Through a series of case studies, the paper illustrates the evolving perspective of Indian courts, which have begun to treat domain names as part of trademark protection. In addressing these challenges, the paper highlights the importance of successfully resolving disputes arising from cybersquatting to facilitate ease of business. It argues for the necessity to thoroughly analyze and discuss the regulation of cybersquatting under the trademark regime in India and explores potential remedial measures to enhance the trademark legal framework governing cybersquatting. There is a need for legislative reforms to improve the protection of both registered and unregistered trademarks against cybersquatting. A robust policy designed to navigate the digital domain is needed to ensure comprehensive legal protection for domain names as crucial assets of business identity and intellectual property. This contribution aims to advance the discourse on enhancing intellectual property rights protection in the digital age, proposing a framework for legal reforms tailored to the unique challenges of the digital marketplace.

Eradicating sinner to eliminate the sin is one of the most criticized matter in human history. Punishment as a remedy for the mischief committed by offenders may not be an effective formula to supress crimes in an evolving society. It merely invokes the feeling of revenge among the convicts and creates probability of post-traumatic stress to the convicts of petty offences. Correcting offenders is more of a philosophical concept which deals with wide range of variable factors revolving around a human being rather than a Legal concept which is limited to prescribing substantial remedies and mechanism for enforcing the same. Community service is one of the most effective techniques which aims to reform the offender by indulging them into social work. Community service refers to an unpaid social work , generally carried out to support the social welfare activities which serves as an alternative to prison punishment. These include sanitation activities, serving at old age homes, maintaining public facilities, educational or awareness programs, charity work etc. The primary aim of restoration is to promote development in the personality and the character of the offender, in order to make him a sensible member of society. Apart from correcting Offenders Community Service serves multiple valuable benefits to the society as well. Such benefits validates Community Service to be one of the most effective method for reformation therefore aligning with global trends in restorative justice and a step away from purely punitive methods.
