On account of globalization and significant increase in Inbound and Outbound investment and trade, an entity engaged in cross border transactions may get exposed to more than one tax jurisdiction. Cross border transactions bring with them increased tax complexities and tax authorities of respective jurisdictions are primarily interested in ensuring that risks of tax revenue leakages in the cross border transactions are effectively addressed in the domestic tax law. That brings a framework of rules relating to cross border transactions in the income tax law to ensure that pricing of these transactions is fair and proper. The need to be compliant with these special provisions under Tax Laws and various other regulations thus emerges.
