Trends and technology in white-collar crimes

In this episode of Transforming India – The Road to 2047, presented by Mint in partnership with JSA  Advocates & Solicitors, host Alokesh Bhattacharyya discusses how white-collar crime in India is changing as the economy becomes more digital and interconnected.

Joining the conversation are Dheeraj Nair and Hormuz Mehta, Partners at JSA Advocates & Solicitors, who share insights from their frontline experience with regulatory investigations and enforcement matters involving agencies such as the ED, CBI, and SFIO. The discussion looks at the rise of deepfakes, cyber fraud, digital identity theft, and cross-border money trails while also examining how many governance failures still come down to weak internal controls, delayed response systems, and the lack of proactive oversight within companies. The episode also highlights the need for stronger compliance frameworks, better-trained enforcement agencies, and closer coordination across jurisdictions as financial crimes continue to evolve. Together, these insights offer a grounded perspective on how Indian businesses and institutions must evolve to build resilience, trust, and accountability on the road to 2047.
