Faceless Assessment
The changes assessment scenario of the Current Tax Regime is the aspect of faceless assessments, where in the Income Tax Returns are assessed ( scrutinised) by an unknown team located in any other geographical area. This possesses great dangers and it is imperative that lucid and clear explanations ae made for easy understanding so that the departmental officers are confined and not impose undue tax demands.
In terms of the changing assessment scenario, the Income tax Department has now started the faceless assessment scheme and we at KRS & Co., are fully and adequately equipped to handle such faceless assessments. In fact we have already handled such assessments with the all Statutory Department since the start of the faceless scheme.
Tax Deduction Compliance
Other than the above aspects, the compliance with the Withholding Tax Provisions ( Tax Deduction/ Collection at Source) for businesses and other applicable persons have become the pivotal point of tax compliance. It is to be noted that non-compliance in these areas have serious penalties which in some cases can lead to prosecution along with other monetary punishments.
We have developed and equipped our team with the necessary learning and training to ensure that they keep an "Hawks" eye on the data generated by the clients to ensure that there are no slip-ups regarding compliance with the withholding tax provisions and reducing the penal and additional costs of non-compliance.
Transfer Pricing - International & Domestic
With the increased globalisation of businesses in India and the advent of Arms-length pricing of related party transactions as envisaged by the Income Tax Act , the need for compliance in reporting and disclosure of Related party transactions with special emphasis on Arms Length pricing has grown in Importance. This has been compounded by the fact that in the year 2017 , the Income Tax also included related party domestic transactions in the fold of Arms Length pricing subject to some threshold limits. This has cast various obligations on companies to independently evaluate its related party transactions and ensure that they do not get caught up in the nuances of the Income Tax Act , with respect to its transactions. It may be noted that this area of reporting and compliance is very specialised which requires a detailed knowledge of the provisions of the act and the entire gamut of international taxation principles.
