ABSTRACT

White collar crimes in India have surged in frequency and complexity, exposing significant gaps in the nation’s regulatory and enforcement frameworks. This paper explores the evolution of white collar crime jurisprudence in India, the legal and institutional challenges in addressing these crimes, and the role of technology and whistleblowers in both perpetuating and combating corporate and bureaucratic misconduct. Drawing on legislative developments and landmark cases, the study proposes recommendations to strengthen accountability and the rule of law in the white collar crime domain.
