Businesses with operations in India or conducting
transactions with related parties there should be aware of upcoming transfer
pricing deadlines. The Income Tax Act, 1961, outlines regulations for these
transactions, and all such activity must be reported by October 31, 2024
using Form 3CEB.
This reporting requirement applies to all business
entities, including proprietorships, firms, LLPs, and companies.
Transfer pricing regulations ensure fair pricing for
transactions between related parties. Failing to comply can lead to tax
adjustments and penalties.
Key Points for Businesses:
- All
transactions with related parties in India, regardless of value, must be
reported by October 31st.
- For
international transactions exceeding INR 1 Crore, detailed documentation
explaining the transaction and pricing rationale is required.
- Businesses
should review existing agreements with related parties and ensure pricing
aligns with “arm’s length” principles, reflecting market value for similar
transactions between unrelated parties.
Ensuring Compliance:
Effective planning and structuring of transactions,
coupled with determining arm's length prices before agreements, are crucial for
strong corporate governance and tax compliance.
