About the Course
This course is designed with the intent to equip law students with detailed knowledge of international tax and double tax avoidance agreements. India is emerging as a favourable jurisdiction for multinationals to carry on business. Hence, understanding the issues under international taxation and double tax avoidance agreements and how to interpret them becomes imperative. Students would be introduced to India’s double tax avoidance agreements, the Indian judicial decisions on the interpretation of tax treaties as well as domestic tax law provisions for non-residents.
The course would involve dissecting some of the important Indian as well as foreign judicial cases and deliberating on India's tax treaty policy. Further, a detailed discussion would be taken up on digital tax issues as India has been actively participating in global discussions on the same. The course covers non-resident taxation under Income-tax Act, double tax avoidance agreements and their interpretation, how to read and interpret the tax treaties, digital taxation issues and transfer pricing basics.
