Taxindiainternational.com (“TII”), established on April 23, 2010, is a dedicated portal on international taxation. It belongs to India’s most prestigious and popular taxation and trade portal Taxindiaonline.com (TIOL). TIOL is the FIRST Govt of India (Press Information Bureau) recognised ONLINE MEDIA and resource company providing business-critical information, analyses, expert views, editorials and related news on developments in fiscal, foreign trade, and monetary policy domains.
TIOL's subscriber-base comprises multinational and domestic corporations, various service providers such as lawyers, consultants, and accounting firms; Ministries and departments of the Government of India, officials of the departments of revenue, taxation, and commerce.
TII is a reality born out of the sustained feedback from TIOL's existing diverse subscribers. Responding to their demand and also considering the fact that more and more foreign companies are operating from India and the fact that Indian corporates are also expanding their domain beyond India's geographical boundaries, we expect to fill the void for providing latest updates on policy and judicial decisions that affect their working. In course of time, we also intend to cover decisions rendered by foreign courts in these areas.
