Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before creating your document.

Is this JV Agreement suitable for both equity and purely contractual joint ventures?+

Yes, the template is structured to support equity-based JV entities as well as purely contractual JVs, with conditional clauses that adapt depending on whether a company, LLP or contractual model is selected.

Can foreign investors use this JV template for investing in India?+

Yes, but foreign investors must additionally ensure compliance with FEMA, FDI policy, sectoral caps and any regulatory approvals, and the JV Agreement may need to be aligned with their jurisdictional requirements.

How are disputes under this JV Agreement resolved?+

The template allows the parties to choose between arbitration and court jurisdiction; if arbitration is selected, it follows the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 with a configurable Indian seat and venue.

Does this JV Agreement cover IP ownership created during the JV?+

Yes, it includes configurable IP ownership models, clarifies pre-existing IP, and can be extended with detailed IP schedules for technology, trademarks or know-how.

Can this JV Agreement operate alongside a shareholders’ agreement?+

In equity JVs, the document can be integrated with or supplemented by a shareholders’ agreement and aligned with the company’s articles of association to ensure consistency and enforceability.
