Corporate tax solutions designed to support compliance, reduce risk and improve profitability – aligned with your structure, strategy and growth goals.
Corporate taxes in India are not just a financial obligation - they shape business decisions, impact profitability and influence cross-border strategies. Between tax planning, reporting standards, POEM, BEPS measures and regulatory filings, managing your corporate tax affairs has become both high-stakes and time-sensitive.
That is why corporate tax advisory is not about saving tax alone - it is about structuring right, staying ahead of compliance and aligning tax positions with your long-term business goals.
From capital gains during a merger to planning for MAT or ICDS implications, every move has a tax angle. At MSA, we provide strategic advice backed by a clear understanding of India's tax laws, sector-specific nuances and practical execution. That is where real value lies and that is where MSA come in.
Our team of Chartered Accountants offers structured tax planning aligned with your business model, whether you are dealing with restructuring, foreign investment, ESOPs or an IPO.
We assist you with tax provisioning, litigation strategy, entity structuring and interpretation of tax positions under MAT, ICDS and POEM. From advisory on domestic and international tax exposures to support in advance rulings and withholding tax matters, we provide clarity and direction. Simply put, we help you make better tax decisions - without second-guessing.
For most businesses today, tax is not something you look at once a year - it almost shows up in board meetings, funding discussions and even client contracts. With every change in regulations, a new interpretation follows and what felt clear last year might now be challenging.
Further, there is more scrutiny, especially around transactions, cross-border flows and positions taken under MAT or ICDS. And this is not just about saving money - although it does matter. It is about timing, documentation and getting your structure right from the start. In this kind of environment, having tax advisors who think ahead is not a choice - it is a necessity.
Too many businesses deal with tax only when the deadline hits - or worse, when a notice shows up. And the result is - tax credits get wasted. Your company, the way it is structured, starts working against you - not for you. Foreign payments trigger unnecessary withholding.
Even something as basic as an ESOP plan can lead to compliance delays if the tax angle was missed during setup. Over time - it adds up. Missed opportunities. Higher effective tax rates. A growing risk profile. And sooner or later - something gives up.
So, a good planning might not fix the past - but it will definitely keep the future under control.
Whether you are dealing with income tax on foreign payments, planning a merger or simply trying to make sense of your MAT credit - our team steps in with grounded advice, not just checklists.
Here is a peek at how we support our clients and businesses with their corporate tax needs across industries:
We work with your finance and leadership teams to plan ahead - whether it is choosing between the old and new tax regime, evaluating dividend payout options or maximising tax-saving opportunities under Section 80IA, 35(2AB) or others. Planning starts early - and it pays off.
We prepare and file your corporate income tax returns with accuracy, full disclosure and the right balance of caution and optimisation. This includes preparing all required annexures, computation sheets (financial reports) and audit reports where applicable.
Quarterly projections do not have to be a wild guess. We calculate your advance tax based on estimated income and keep you updated before each due date - June 15, Sept 15, Dec 15 and March 15.
Got a notice? Facing a scrutiny assessment or penalty? We represent you before tax officers, draft responses and handle proceedings end-to-end. We have done this for startups, MNCs and established businesses (companies) - and we know how to cut through the red tape.
Managing payments to vendors, contractors, professionals or even overseas partners? We help you apply correct TDS rates, generate certificates and file returns (Form 24Q, 26Q, 27Q) on time.
If you have related party transactions - especially across borders - you need Transfer Pricing documentation in place. We help you prepare Master Files, Local Files and stay ready for scrutiny under Indian and OECD TP guidelines.
We will help you calculate Minimum Alternate Tax or Alternate Minimum Tax as applicable, track credit utilisation and ensure these do not trip up your cash flow planning.
Whether you are merging two entities, acquiring a business or restructuring operations - every move has a tax angle. We model different scenarios to show you the impact upfront.
Corporate tax is not just a compliance item - it is tied to your funding, growth and day-to-day decisions. And in a country like India, where rules change/evolve fast, and interpretations vary, relying only on filings is not enough.
What you really need is foresight - someone to help you think things through before tax starts affecting your bottom line. That is where we come in.
If you are looking for clarity, structure and a team that gets the nuances - let us help.
Please share a few details and we'd be glad to call you back.
