Abstract:
The research employs 147 non- financial companies in India as a sample to examine how various corporate governance practices (such as board size, board diversity, board independence, frequency of board meetings, and CEO duality) affect firm performance. The study period is 13 years starting from 2011-12 to 2023-24. Adopting the static panel structure (Fixed Effect model), the findings reflect an affirmative association amidst a range of corporate governance practices and firm performance. This research theoretically contributes by adding new evidence from an intriguing market like India to the existing body of work. Practically speaking, the study's conclusions would assist the stock exchange regulators and other regulatory agencies in strengthening board management in improving firm performance.
