The main intended audiences for the work are practicing lawyers and economists who may not have a studied the other discipline and it is therefore written in a manner that does not require the interventions of a classroom instructor.

The second on applications includes chapters on eminent domain and just competition, patent law, pharmaceutical patents and film industry copyrights, contract law, business outsourcing, tort law, efficiency of liability rules, the Indian Electricity Act, initial public offerings institutions, and legal and judicial process in India.
