- An established business for purposes of expansion
agrees to provide its brand, goodwill and other
required support to assist another party to set
up and run the business in exchange for some
charges and part of the revenue which is
generated. In such circumstances, a legal
document is required which declares all the terms
and conditions acceptable to all the parties and
the rights, duties and obligation of each party
along with the number of profits to be shared.
Such an agreement is called the Franchise
Agreement.

10The new Mental Health Act in India is a lifeline
to the mental health structure in the country.
Even though the act fails on the front of
unemployment of persons with mental illness, it
makes up for it by covering the rest of the
field. If you think you or anyone you know is
suffering from mental illness, consult a doctor.
Additionally, spread awareness about how common
being is depressed. Consulting a specialist wont
make you mad in any way. Weve ignored mental
health for too long, its time to make a move.
