Tax Litigation Services
Tax Litigation Services
Tax litigation services in India refer to the professional assistance
provided by legal and tax experts to individuals or businesses facing
disputes or controversies with tax authorities. Tax litigation arises
when there is a disagreement between taxpayers and tax authorities
over tax liabilities, assessments, refunds, or other tax-related
matters. These disputes may pertain to income tax, goods and services
tax (GST), customs duty, excise duty, or other tax types.
Key aspects of tax litigation services in India include:

Representation and Advocacy
Tax litigation experts, including tax lawyers and chartered
accountants, represent clients before various tax authorities,
appellate tribunals, and courts. They present legal arguments
and evidence to support their clients' positions and protect
their rights.

Assessments and Appeals
Tax litigation services cover both the initial assessment
stage and the subsequent appeals process. Tax professionals
assist in responding to tax notices, filing objections, and
preparing appeals against adverse tax assessments

Dispute Resolution
Tax consultants aim to resolve tax disputes through
alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, such as settlement
negotiations or mediation, to avoid prolonged litigation.

High Court & Supreme Court Representation
In case the dispute escalates, tax litigators can represent
clients in High Courts and the Supreme Court of India, where
complex tax matters are adjudicated.

Advisory Services
Tax litigation experts provide clients with legal advice and
opinions on tax matters to help them make informed decisions
and understand the potential tax implications of their
actions.

International Tax Controversies
Support in cases involving international tax issues, including
double taxation, tax treaties, and issues related to permanent
establishment.

Stay of Demands
Requesting stay orders to halt tax authorities from taking
coercive measures during the pendency of the tax dispute.
Compliance and Risk Management: Advising clients on tax
compliance practices to minimise the risk of future disputes
and litigation.
