Shares 2 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited

Indirect Transfer of
Shares Backdrop • Presently no specific provision to tax A Co indirect transfer of shares of an Indian company ‒ Taxation of indirect transfer of shares Transfer C Co presupposed in the DTC; exemption granted in certain situations • Recent landmark judgment of the B Co Supreme Court in the Vodafone case ‒ Indirect transfer of shares not taxable Outside India • Indirect transfer of shares specifically proposed to be brought to tax India ‒ Proposed amendment nullifies the judgment of the Supreme Court Indian Co 3 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
4.
Indirect Transfer of
Shares Proposed amendments • Proposed clarificatory amendments retrospectively from 1 April 1962: ‒ „through‟ includes „by means of‟, „in consequence of‟, or „by reason of‟ ‒ Share or interest in a foreign company deemed to be situated in India if its value derives, directly or indirectly, from assets located in India ‒ „property‟ includes any rights in or in relation to an Indian company, including rights of management or control or any other rights ‒ „transfer‟ includes disposing of or parting with an asset or any interest, or creating any interest in any asset • directly or indirectly, absolutely or conditionally, voluntarily or involuntarily • by way of an agreement (entered into in India or outside India) or otherwise • notwithstanding that transfer of rights has been characterised as being effected or dependent upon or flowing from the transfer of shares of a foreign company • Validation clause to validate notices and taxes in respect of income accruing or arising through indirect transfer of shares 4 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
5.
Indirect Transfer of
Shares Implications and key issues Implications • Targeting to tax overseas acquisitions having substantial value derived from underlying Indian assets • Negative impact on litigations pending at various levels Key issues • Is the amendment constitutionally valid - Effect on Vodafone / other cases - Validation clause • Impact on transfers routed through favorable treaty jurisdictions • Tax implications for intra-group restructurings / global acquisitions • Holding company listed on a stock exchange outside of India • “Substantial Value” ? • Computation of the value ? 5 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited

General Anti Avoidance
Rule 6 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
7.
GAAR Backdrop • Tax avoidance
v. Tax evasion ‒ Avoidance: An attempt to reduce tax liability through legal means, i.e. to regulate your affairs in such a way that you pay the minimum tax imposed (as opposed to the maximum) ‒ Evasion: Use of illegal means to reduce tax liabilities, i.e. falsification of books, suppression of income, overstatement of deductions, etc. • Principle laid down by English Courts and accepted and reiterated by Indian Courts: Within the framework of the law, a taxpayer has the right to arrange his affairs in the most tax efficient manner ‒ Legal form of a transaction respected by judiciary • Introduction of General Anti Avoidance Rule [GAAR] to provide for taxation based on the „real nature‟ of a transaction Principle of substance over legal form sought to be introduced 7 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
8.
GAAR Proposed provisions (1)
Impermissible arrangement Objective of obtaining tax Arrangement benefit (including intangible benefits) Creates rights and Results in direct or indirect Lacks or is deemed to lack obligations not normally misuse or abuse of the commercial substance in Is not bonafide created in arm’s length provisions whole or part transactions Consequences Disregarding, combining Treating the arrangement Disregarding any party or or re-characterising the Deeming connected as if it has not been treating parties as one and whole or part of the persons to be one entered into the same person arrangement Reallocating any income / Determining the place of Disregarding any Treatment of equity as receipt and expenditure / residence or situs of asset corporate structure debt and vice versa deduction or transaction 8 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
9.
GAAR Proposed provisions (2) •
Treaty will be overridden when GAAR is invoked • Arrangement resulting in tax benefit shall be presumed to be for the main purpose of obtaining a tax benefit, unless proved otherwise ‒ Burden of proof on the taxpayer • Arrangement deemed to lack commercial substance if: ‒ Arrangement as a whole differs significantly from individual steps ‒ It involves round trip financing, an accommodating party, offsetting or cancelling transactions, disguising the transaction ‒ Location of asset or transaction or place of residence is for obtaining a tax benefit • Reference by jurisdictional Commissioner to Approving Panel (of at least three members of the rank of Commissioner or above) before invoking GAAR ‒ Taxpayer can file appeal to the Tribunal against order of Approving Panel; tax authorities cannot challenge the order 9 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
10.
GAAR Implications and key
issues (1) Implications • Every „tax planning‟ measure potentially open to challenge by the Revenue Key issues • The cornerstone of GAAR is determining the motive of a taxpayer ‒ Determination of motive is highly subjective and open to diverse interpretations • Clear and unambiguous guidelines need to be prescribed in order to provide protection against arbitrary application of the GAAR • Guidelines will be critical on the following issues: ‒ Distinction between tax planning and tax avoidance ‒ Threshold limits? • Can GAAR provisions be invoked against arrangements entered into prior to the implementation, but resulting in a tax benefit after introduction of GAAR? 10 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
11.
GAAR Implications and key
issues (2) Some case studies • Investments into India through holding companies in intermediary jurisdictions (Mauritius, Cyprus, etc.) likely to be subjected to detailed scrutiny under GAAR • Tax authorities may seek to re-characterise of buyback proceeds as dividend • Re-characterisation of debt into equity (dividend distribution tax ?) • Split contracts in EPC industry – with overall responsibility of the foreign entity • Domestic structuring (amalgamation / demerger) approved by High Court – tax authorities may seek to challenge the same also • Changing business models, say from marketing service provider to low risk distributor Prolonged litigation and uncertainty for taxpayers 11 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
12.
International Taxation 12
©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
13.
International Taxation Scope of
coverage of royalty widened • Clarification that transfer of rights for use / right to use computer software (including granting of a licence) is in the nature of royalty ‒ In line with judgment of the Karnataka High Court in the case of Samsung ‒ Not in line with international principles • Clarification that royalty includes consideration in respect of right, property or information, whether or not: (1) possession is with the payer; or (2) used directly by the payer; or (3) location is in India • Clarification that „process‟ includes transmission by satellite, cable, optic fibre or by any other similar technology, whether or not such process is secret • Retrospective amendment from 1 June 1976 ‒ Attempt to overcome contrary judicial pronouncements of the Delhi High Court in the cases of Ericsson and Asia Satellite and in other cases Possible to argue that payments not taxable under the treaty? 13 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
14.
International Taxation Other amendments
(2) • Meaning of terms notified by the government under tax treaties shall be deemed to be effective from the date of the tax treaty ‒ Retrospective amendment from 1 October 2009 ‒ Notification defining „may be taxed‟ issued on 28 August 2008 – impact of amendment on this notification unclear 14 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
15.
International Taxation Withholding tax
provisions tightened • Clarification that a non-resident is required to comply with the Indian withholding tax provisions while making a payment to another non-resident ‒ Provision applies regardless of whether the non-resident payer has a residence, place of business, business connection or any other presence in India ‒ Retrospective amendment from 1 April 1962 Practical Difficulty – Indian address required for TAN Impossibility of Performance – How to enforce compliance? Impact on Indian withholding tax on payment by NR to R 15 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
16.
International Taxation Withholding tax
provisions tightened • Requirement to make an application to the tax authorities to determine the appropriate proportion of sum chargeable to tax on payments to non-residents ‒ Class of persons or cases to which provision will apply to be notified ‒ Provision deals with proportion of the sum chargeable to tax – rate of tax not to be specified by the tax authorities ‒ Requirement applies whether or not the sum is chargeable to tax – unclear why application required when payment not taxable ‒ Intention to overrule Supreme Court judgment in GE Technology‟s case? Possibly to limit CA certification route for certain payments Composite Contracts, Share Transfer, etc. may be notified 16 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
17.
International Taxation Tax Residency
Certificate • Tax treaty benefits available only if tax residency certificate obtained from the Government of the country of residence ‒ Certificate to contain prescribed particulars ‒ Necessary but not sufficient condition for claiming treaty benefits ‒ Implementation of treaty is left to the countries and hence domestic law can provide for initial tax payment and then claim of refund through Return ‒ Wider (or widest?) scope of domestic tax (for royalties / FTS / Capital Gains and even business connection) and cases of grossing-up to cause real hardship No PE – Fixed Base / Make Available / Professional services? Impact for issuance of Certificate u/s. 195 Does appeal lie before CIT(A) u/s. 248 if TRC obtained later? 17 ©2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited
