Transfer Pricing
Getting cross-border transactions right
Getting cross-border transactions right
For businesses operating across borders or within multinational groups, transfer pricing is among the most closely scrutinised areas of taxation. Getting it wrong, even unintentionally, can lead to significant adjustments, penalties and prolonged disputes.
Our transfer pricing practice ensures that inter-company transactions are priced correctly, documented rigorously and defended with confidence. We work with Indian companies with overseas operations, Indian arms of multinational groups and foreign businesses entering India.
Our approach combines fluency in the OECD and Indian frameworks with hands-on benchmarking experience and a practical understanding of how positions are tested before the TPO, the DRP and the ITAT.

Our approach
Defensible documentation
We document positions to a standard that holds up before the TPO, the DRP and the ITAT.
Careful benchmarking
The quality of comparables determines outcomes, so we invest in this step.
PE-aware structuring
We always consider transfer pricing and permanent establishment exposure together.
APAs where sensible
For high-value recurring transactions, an APA can offer certainty. We help evaluate and pursue one.
