By Our Corporate Bureau | 20 May 2004
The
Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India
(Assocham) is organising a conference on international
tax on May 21-22, 2004, in New Delhi. The conference will
focus on issues pertaining to taxation on cross border
transactions and will comprise a series of presentations
and discussions on transfer pricing, withholding taxes,
filing and reporting requirements, taxation of inbound
and outbound investments, expatriate taxation and taxation
of export.
Senior
government representatives, including the secretary,
government of India, and experts from leading consultancy
firms will address the conference. Advocates and heads
of taxation from the corporate sector, including the
central board of direct taxes, PwC, Wipro, Deloitte
Haskins & Sells, Citibank, GE India, HSBC Hong Kong,
KPMG, ITC, Motorola and ITAT, will also speak at the
conference.
Surender
Kumar Jindal, director, Jindal group of companies and
chairman of the investment and capital market committee,
says, “We are moving to a global world. Companies
and individuals need to be aware about tax laws in their
country as well as overseas.
Countries are moving towards this integration by bringing
their tax laws in consonance with each other. The initiative
by Assocham is also a step in this direction.”
