Tax

Tax matters can affect individuals, businesses, companies, professionals, investors, trusts, and other taxpayers. Legal issues may arise in connection with income tax, tax notices, assessments, reassessment, tax disputes, appeals, tax compliance, deductions, business taxation, international taxation, and other direct or indirect tax matters.

In 2026, India's income-tax framework has entered an important transition. The Income-tax Act, 2025 came into force on 1 April 2026 and replaced the Income-tax Act, 1961 for tax years beginning from that date. The new framework uses the concept of a "tax year" instead of the earlier "previous year" and "assessment year" terminology for the new regime. However, the Income-tax Act, 1961 continues to apply to tax years beginning before 1 April 2026, including relevant earlier-year proceedings under the applicable transitional provisions.

An experienced tax lawyer can assist with tax planning, interpretation of tax provisions, notices from tax authorities, assessment and reassessment proceedings, appeals, tax disputes, penalties, refunds, and other taxation matters. A lawyer can review financial and tax documents, explain applicable provisions, prepare legal responses, assist with representations and negotiations, and represent clients before the appropriate tax authorities, appellate forums, tribunals, or courts.

Tax matters can involve detailed documentation and changing statutory requirements. The Income Tax Department has also introduced new forms and compliance processes under the Income-tax Act, 2025 and Income-tax Rules, 2026.
