India’s foreign tax row

WASHINGTON: Foreign investors should not look to Indian government for now to provide relief from a ruling requiring them to pay taxes on years of previously untaxed capital gains, Indian Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said on Thursday. US and European investor groups are upset with Minimum Alternate Taxation (MAT) measure, which would apply levies for past years at a higher rate than they had been subject to in the past. Tax experts say the foreigners may owe $8 billion. — Reuters
