Preface
Taxation permeates business transactions in India, and a strong understanding of tax liabilities can
enable foreign investors to maximize the tax efficiency of their investments while ensuring full
compliance with all tax laws and regulations. This guide provides an overview of taxes for businesses
and individuals in India and discusses accounting and audit practices in the country.
This guide was created in 2016 based on the most current information available at the time. As the
tax situation of each enterprise is unique and India’s regulatory environment is subject to change,
it is advisable that firms and investors seek professional tax advice. India Briefing’s “Tax, Accounting,
and Audit in India” is produced in collaboration with the tax experts at Dezan Shira & Associates, a
specialist foreign direct investment practice providing corporate establishment, business advisory,
tax advisory and compliance, accounting, payroll, due diligence, and financial review services to
multinationals investing in emerging Asia.
Making a strategic and informed decision about investing in India requires a thorough understanding
of the diverse options for investment in the country, in addition to the regulatory structures that
govern operations and compliance. This tax guide will shed light upon some of these regulatory and
legal structures, and can be used as a guidebook for companies and investors seeking to operate
a business in India.
