With the ever-growing importance of India in international trade, infrastructure investments, technical collaborations, joint ventures, M&A, private equity investments and portfolio investments, the need for structured and researched international tax advice on transactions is very important.

We work closely with many Indian companies on their international joint ventures and agreements to determine the most tax efficient way to structure the agreements and the transactions bearing in mind the business needs of the clients. We also work extensively with foreign companies planning to setup operations in India or provide technical service to Indian companies.

Various sectors such as infrastructure and other sectors that involve acquiring technical knowledge and collaboration from foreign experts need special care while drafting agreements and planning the business operation.

Due to the differing nature of tax treaties between different countries, it is possible that acquiring know-how, rented equipment, etc. from one country may be more tax efficient than from another country. This analysis may help in negotiating with bidders and also possibly restructuring the mode of the transaction to be more tax efficient.
