After days of number crunching and close to four rounds of hearing with Vodafone, the Income Tax Department on October 22, 2010, raised an order demanding the final amount of Capital Gains Liability Tax that the UK based telecom giant will have
The Bombay High Court on Wednesday deferred to Nov 23 a hearing of Vodafone’s petition against a move by Indian tax office to treat it as an agent of the seller in its 2007 acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa’s mobile business in India, a spokesman for
After slapping over Rs 11,000 crore tax notice on Vodafone over its deal with Hutch , the income tax department today said it is not unnecessarily aggressive on this case and is just implementing the law. “We are implementing the law as it is.
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) is fighting many battles all at once — from the Vodafone tax case to pacifying India Inc on certain provisions of the direct taxes code, to voicing concerns on a hurried shift to IFRS. Haste makes waste. Th
The Supreme Court on Monday adjourned hearing in the tax case against Vodafone to 15th November after the telecom company sought time to go through the Rs. 11,218 crore tax notice sent by the Income Tax department.
The Income Tax department today issued an order raising a tax demand of Rs.11,217.95 crore on Vodafone International Holdings BV treating it as an assessee in default under section 201(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the Act) for failure to deduct ta
Vodafone said on Friday it has filed a petition in Bombay High Court defending itself against a new step by tax authorities treating the telco as an ‘agent’ of the seller in its $ 11-billion (about Rs 50,000 crore) takeover of Hutchison Telecom in 20
The Supreme Court on Monday refused to offer any immediate relief to Vodafone, which has challenged the Bombay High Court order allowing the government to tax the company’s $11 billion deal with Hutch. The tax department had raised a demand for Rs 12,000 crore (Rs 120 billion) as tax on the 2007 deal. While refusing to stay the high court order, the apex court issued notices to the tax authorities directing them to decide within four weeks the liabilities of Vodafone.
Sticking to its claim that it does not have a tax liability, Vodafone today said it made no capital gains in the USD 11 billion (about Rs 50,000 crore) Hutchison buyout deal and would take necessary action to defend its position.
The Income Tax Department on Monday said that it will issue a demand for over R12,000 crore to Vodafone within four weeks, following a Supreme Court verdict to that effect. “We will be raising tax demand on Vodafone within four weeks,” CBDT Chairman S.S.N. Moorthy said. He said a few similar cases are also under the I-T department’s scanner, but refused to name them. “Apprehensions have been expressed in different quarters regarding the impact of such action on foreign investment in India…. This, together with the fact that India has received the highest ever foreign direct investment in the current fiscal, belies that apprehension,” he said.
