TAX

A state relies on revenue to manage its finances and administer its government, achieved through levying various taxes on both individuals and corporations. In India, the Central Government and State Governments possess taxing authority, with local governments such as Municipalities also imposing smaller taxes. Taxes fall into two main categories: direct taxes and indirect taxes.

Direct taxes are paid directly to the taxing authority by individuals or organizations, typically the government. On the other hand, indirect taxes are collected from an intermediary, like a retail store, and ultimately borne by the end consumer. Examples include sales tax, excise duty, value-added tax (VAT), and goods and services tax (GST).

At Broad Legal Assets (BLA), our team of tax experts provides comprehensive advice on various tax aspects for companies, covering:
