Income tax department slaps notices on foreign investors with no earnings
Foreign investors are receiving unexpected tax notices in India, even for transactions where no profit or dividend was earned. The tax department is initiating reassessment proceedings, questioning the absence of income tax returns for share purchases. Experts highlight that such notices, potentially triggered by remittance data, may be misapplied to transactions that didn't generate income, causing confusion and compliance burdens for overseas entities.
