Tax Advisory & Disputes
Advice and representation on income tax and GST assessments, notices, appeals and transaction structuring.
Tax advisory covers structuring transactions and businesses in compliance with the Income-tax and GST laws, and tax disputes cover responding to notices, assessments, demands and appeals before the appellate authorities, the tribunal and the High Court.
Tax questions sit inside almost every commercial matter the firm handles: how a restructuring is taxed, whether a recovery is subject to GST, what an insolvency distribution means for the creditor's books. We advise on these questions and represent clients when a notice arrives.
We work alongside chartered accountants where the matter needs both a legal and an accounting view, and we take appeals to the Commissioner (Appeals), the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal and the Delhi High Court.

- GST show cause notices, adjudication and appeals
- Appeals before CIT(A), ITAT and the Delhi High Court

Frequently asked questions
What should I do when I receive an income tax notice?
Read the section it is issued under and the deadline for reply, gather the documents it asks for, and respond on the portal within time, with a reasoned reply. Ignoring a notice leads to best-judgment assessment and penalties. A lawyer should be involved early where the notice alleges under-reporting or escapement of income.
Can a GST demand be appealed?
Yes. An appeal to the appellate authority lies within three months of the order, with a mandatory pre-deposit of 10% of the disputed tax. Further appeal lies to the GST Appellate Tribunal and then the High Court.
