Abstract

Since the 1990s, corporate governance in India has gained significant attention from practitioners, academicians, and policymakers due to various economic reforms, specifically liberalization. However, the field is heterogeneous and fragmented. Therefore, the study intends to review the literature on corporate governance in India comprehensively through a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis. A systematic literature review helps to broaden and improve the rigor of reviewing the literature. Simultaneously, the bibliometric analysis aims to study and analyze divergent views and examine the growth trajectory and productivity of the field. This study will provide an integrated and comprehensive picture of corporate governance practices in the Indian context. The study lists the most significant keywords, prominent authors, evolution, and citations of the articles. Further, it analyzes the literature with reference to theory, context, characteristics, and methodology. The study also lists future research directions in the area of Indian corporate governance.
