India is well known for its complex income tax system. This course is intended to give participants an overview and a good understanding of the Indian tax system (including changes that are to be introduced by the new Direct Tax Code) and its terms and concepts, with particular emphasis on the wide range of corporate/international tax issues that have to be addressed when investing in India. The main focus of the course will be on corporate taxation and investment structures.

Prior to the course, participants will be given access to an online platform which provides them with additional pre-reading material and supplementary material (e.g. legal documentation, case law and related articles/literature). During the course, participants will be provided with a course binder containing documents relevant to the course. Additionally, participants will be provided with a 2 week complimentary access to the IBFD’s on-line Asia-Pacific database which includes comprehensive coverage on Indian taxation.

The seminar is suitable for CEOs, CFOs, finance and tax personnel of multinational enterprises, tax accountants and lawyers, who deal with Indian tax issues or for those who would like to gain an understanding of Indian corporate tax law.

This is an introductory-level course. Although participation in the course does not require prior experience or knowledge about the Indian tax system, participants should have some understanding of general principles of taxation, including international aspects.
