Description
CCH India Advance Pricing Agreement by EY
With the economy being liberalised, and financial arrangements taking place between enterprises across borders, one of the important issues that is emerging is transfer pricing. There are certain compliances prescribed under the Income tax law regarding Arm’s Length Pricing (computation of a price which would have been charged, had these arrangements/transactions not being undertaken with an associated enterprise, thus affecting the business of the concerned enterprises). Consequently more and more assessees are now required to fulfill such compliances/computations as set out under the Income-tax Act. Given the fact that transfer pricing disputes, in India, are rising in an extraordinary manner, the Government of India, introduced Advance Pricing Agreements in 2012, under which tax payer and tax department can enter into a binding agreement to determine a transfer pricing methodology to be adopted for computation of arm’s length price of transactions undertaken over a specified period, thus trying to bring stability over the disputes emerging from transfer pricing. This book addresses the provisions and process laid down under the schema, key issues which are to be adhered to, and regimes followed in other parts of the world in respect of entering into Advance Pricing Agreement.
