Our services

Direct tax — under the Income-tax Act, 2025

The Income-tax Act, 2025 came into force on 1 April 2026 and renumbered almost everything. We work in the new section set — and we know where the renumbering traps are.

Compliance & representation

Return of income under s.263 — original, belated, revised and updated returns
Tax audit under s.63, reported in Form 26
Withholding tax under s.392 (salary) and s.393 (all other payments)
Lower or nil deduction certificates under s.395(1) in Form 128
Assessment and appellate representation before the Commissioner (Appeals) under s.357 and the Appellate Tribunal under s.362
Advance rulings before the Board for Advance Rulings under s.380 to s.389
TDS default consequences under s.398 and penalty under s.448
Interest and late-fee exposure under s.424, s.425 and s.428

Planning & structuring

IFSC unit deduction under s.147 — 100% of business income for 20 consecutive years out of 25, following the Finance Act, 2026
Concessional 15% rate on IFSC unit and offshore banking unit business income under s.218
IFSC exemptions under s.11(1) read with Schedule VI
Transfers on an IFSC recognised stock exchange outside the charge under s.70(r)
Non-resident dividend, royalty and fees for technical services under s.207; FPIs and specified funds under s.210
MAT and AMT under s.206, with the concessional rate for IFSC units
Fund manager safe harbour under s.9(12) read with Schedule I
Residence and RNOR determination under s.6
Charitable registration under s.332 and donation deduction under s.133

Mind the renumbering traps. New s.147 is the IFSC deduction, while income escaping assessment has moved to s.279. Section references throughout are to the Income-tax Act, 2025, in force from 1 April 2026, as amended by the Finance Act, 2026.
