For India and Global Market players, Transfer pricing has become very scrutinized compliance area. With growing regulatory supervision, elaborate OECD guidelines, and vigorous reviews by tax authorities, it is mandatory to ensure that inter-company transactions are in compliance with the arm’s length principle, backed by quality documentation. A strong TP strategy is crucial to avoid penalties, litigation and reputational risks for your organization.
Transfer pricing documentation is not merely a regulatory obligation but your first line of defense in case of perusal by tax authorities. Indian TP regulations and OECD BEPS Action Plans require companies to maintain comprehensive and contemporaneous documentation for international as well as domestic related-party transactions.
We prepare Local File, Master File and CbCR documentation, perform FAR analysis, evaluate inter-company agreements, benchmark margins, assess comparables and develop a clear narrative reflecting your role in the global value chain. Our proactive approach helps mitigate risks and ensures timely compliance.
Benchmarking studies are critical to demonstrate that inter-company transactions are aligned with market norms. Tax authorities rely heavily on economic analysis during audits, making accurate benchmarking essential.
We conduct robust benchmarking using globally accepted databases. Our process begins with understanding your business, transaction type and industry, followed by identification of appropriate comparable companies and arm’s-length ranges.
Our studies cover services, goods, royalties, management fees, financing, and cost-sharing arrangements. We perform financial analysis, quantitative and qualitative screening, adjustments, and regular updates to ensure continued compliance in changing market conditions.
Transfer pricing regulations require multiple annual filings with strict deadlines. Non-compliance may lead to penalties, disallowances, and extended litigation.
We manage end-to-end reporting and filing requirements including Form 3CEB, working closely with finance teams and statutory auditors to validate inter-company transactions and disclosures.
