Abstract

The company's own legal identity is the main benefit of incorporation, from which all other benefits stem. However, the legal person's activities are always carried out for their personal gain and by a small group of individuals. "While, by fiction of law, a corporation is a distinct entity, in actuality it is an association of individuals who are in fact the beneficial owners of all the corporate property," the final decision states, indicating that some individuals are the true beneficiaries of the corporate advantages. The concept of a unique legal entity is not infallible; under certain conditions, the curtain may be raised, and this concept has emerged to address a number of issues with company law. In actuality, the cornerstone of corporate entity theory serves as the framework for all business law. There are numerous instances where courts have effectively lifted the corporate veil.
