The three organs of government under India's separation of powers, with a business-relevant function of each:

  1. Legislature (Parliament at the Centre / State Legislature in the states) — makes the laws that govern business (company law, tax law, labour law) and passes the annual Budget, which sets tax rates and economic policy direction.
  2. Executive (Council of Ministers, government departments, regulatory bodies) — implements and administers those laws; this is the organ a business actually deals with for licences, tax filings, and regulatory inspections.
  3. Judiciary (Supreme Court, High Courts, subordinate courts and business-related tribunals) — interprets the law, settles disputes between parties (including business disputes), and holds the government's own actions accountable through judicial review.
✓Final answer

Legislature (law-making/Budget), Executive (implementation/regulation/licensing), Judiciary (dispute settlement/contract enforcement/judicial review).
