Calling for an overhaul of legal architecture to meet the demands of an evolving economy, Chief Justice of India Surya Kant on Saturday (April 11, 2026) said that the country’s transformation into a $10 trillion economy cannot be achieved through capital or policy alone and that the quality of the legal system would be a crucial factor.
The CJI underscored the need for predictability, specialisation, and a culture of good faith in commercial law to help the country achieve this goal, as it will require capital that involves commitments that unfold over time and for which investor confidence is a must.
