  • March 19, 2021 Shri Jayant Sinha Chairman, Standing Committee Of
    March 19, 2021 Shri Jayant Sinha Chairman, Standing committee of finance Member of Parliament [Lok Sabha] India Subject: Request for wider debate on Equalisation Levy Respected Shri Jayant Sinha ji, Our associations are a collection of the world’s most innovative companies, representing every sector of the economy. We are substantial contributors to a vibrant Indian economy. For all of us, India is an essential market in which many of our members are deeply invested, and all of our members are committed to the Government of India’s goal of making India a $5.0 trillion economy by 2025. We write to raise concerns regarding the amendment to India’s Equalisation Levy included in the Government of India’s proposed Finance Bill to the Union Budget 2021-22. As detailed below, the amendment would create significant challenges for all businesses operating in India, further exacerbating the detrimental impact of a measure at odds with India’s ongoing commitment to the multilateral negotiations at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework to address the tax challenges arising from the digitalisation of the global economy. The G20 Finance Ministers – including Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman – reiterated as recently as February 26 their support for the Inclusive Framework’s timeline of realising a multilateral, consensus- based agreement by mid-2021. It is in the spirit of support for a multilateral solution that we encourage the Parliament to refrain from adopting the amendment proposed to sections 163-165A of the Finance Act, 2016, which, despite its characterization by the Ministry of Finance as clarifications and an amendment, would fundamentally expand the scope of the Equalisation Levy and generate a range of new compliance questions and concerns.
