According to Dr. Khushboo Bhardwaj, Law governs, and it is all about rights and obligations, Thus it is critical for individuals to grasp what is and is not lawful. Similarly, major features of property rights, gallery obligations, and artists' rights, to name a few, exist in the world of art. The art world is a commercial environment with high risks because a lot of money is involved, especially if an artist is successful. So, here is the meeting point of art and law for Dr. Khushboo Bhardwaj, especially since there are a number of issues originating from the distribution of forgeries and fakes, non-payments, and fraud. Paintings by deceased painters are routinely and illegally traded in secondary markets alongside stolen artworks. All of this is regulated by law, and it protects both the rights of the artist and the rights of collectors, providing them the confidence to trade.

Dr. Khushboo Bhardwaj is of a view that GST has been an incredible blessing to the Indian art business. People were previously used to buying a lot of art works informally with cash, but with the introduction of GST, more and more people are becoming accustomed to not having cash transactions and thus leaving a comprehensive paper trail. They're paying GST on the Indian artwork, which is a great thing for Dr. Khushboo Bhardwaj. Art literacy and access to Indian art have only grown as a result of digital media according to Dr. Khushboo Bhardwaj.
