One of the key concerns of corporations, domestic or foreign, today is the prolonged litigation on tax matters and the time it takes to resolve a tax dispute. At the same time, substantial revenues get locked up in disputes; some of which could have otherwise accrued to the receipts of the Government. Emerging concepts of investment arbitration, high sea sales, infrastructure projects and electronic commerce from a tax perspective need to be comprehended and addressed for effective and smooth transactions in international commerce. Therefore, it is important for a modern-day tax professional to understand the concerns of the industry, and also that of the Government, so that effective compliance with the existing regulations can be ensured and long and complex disputes could be avoided.
