Few Important Points on Revised GST Model Law.
Right from the beginning of talks relating to GST,
we all were hoping that with the introduction of GST, there will be “One
Nation, one Tax” or at least “One Nation, Few Rates”. But the actual scenario
is quite different. GST Council has already decided that there will be 4 rate
slab i.e. 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. In addition to this there will be a new cess
with the name “GST Compensation Cess” for first 5 years on some specified
items. Now since government has come out with relevant draft law on this 26th day of
November, 2016, let’s understand this new levy of cess.

Three Imp Verdicts On Transfer Pricing, Taxability Of Software As Royalty And S. 50C Capital Gains

Ahmedabad)
Interplay between
Article 9 of the DTAA and Transfer Pricing law in the Act explained. While
Article 9 is an enabling provision, the TP mechanism under the domestic law is
the machinery provision. There is no occasion to read Article 9 as confined to
enabling ALP adjustment in respect of only domestic entities. The mere fact
that the OECD Commentary etc give examples related to economic double taxation
situations does not imply that the Article 9 (1) cannot be applied to other
situations Saturday, 26 November 2016
