Every person, who has anything to do with tax laws, whether as a taxpayer, tax advisor, tax executive, auditor or tax lawyer, has to plan tax conduct. On one hand, he has to ward off no - win areas, whether it be by adherence to various time limits for tax compliance or obligations relating to tax deduction at source, compulsory maintenance of accounts, etc., so as to avoid pitfalls and not get trapped by involuntary non - compliance of duties enjoined by voluntary compliance as part of procedural law. On the other hand, the tax laws with a constant stream of amendments, some retrospective or even retroactive, ever - flowing precedents from the courts, both binding and non - binding and circulars, benevolent or otherwise, offer both challenge and opportunity in substantive law. It is in this maze of confusion that one may find some shelter in tax incentives, deductions and rebates as well as in the choice of method of accounting, valuation of stock or Accounting Standards.
This book, by gathering all relevant material in plain and easily understandable language, is intended to help save tax. The authors have endeavoured to explain the entire law in simple and easy to understand language with the help of up - to - date case - law on relevant topics. Copious references to cases decided by the Supreme Court, various High Courts and ITAT find place in the book. In addition, references are also made to some foreign cases which have a bearing in the context of Indian tax laws. Amendments including those brought about by the Finance Act, 2015 and precedents reported up to May, 2015 have been taken notice of.

A special feature is a large number of Questions and Answers appended at the end of each Chapter which deal with specific tax problems and their solutions, so as to provide solutions to complex tax problems.
