Inbound investments into India
We are very experienced in structuring the investment of overseas companies into India, to ensure that the investment is cost and tax efficient.
We are familiar with the jurisdictions through which investment is often made into India, for tax purposes, and can advise on which structure will work for any particular company.
We also advise on how best to extract profits from the Indian operation and submit them to the overseas company. It may be in the form of dividends, or interest payments, or returns of capital (unless the FDI rules provide for a capital lock-in for a number of years).
Taylor Wessing regularly advises very senior international groups on entering the Indian marketplace. We work closely with Indian lawyers to ensure that all the legal issues are correctly addressed so that the international groups can enter India in a cost and tax-efficient manner. We are also very well-connected with senior Indian businesses across India and so regularly assist with introducing international groups to customers / clients / contacts in India to further facilitate the success of the international groups in India.
