Practice 05 · Advisory & disputes
Taxation
Direct and indirect tax, GST advisory and litigation, stamp and registration, and related opinions — written so a board or a family can act, and defended when the question reaches a forum.
Overview
Tax advice written for decisions — and defended when contested
Parens Patrice advises and appears on direct and indirect tax questions — including corporate tax, GST, TDS/TCS, assessments and appellate litigation — as well as stamp and registration issues that arise in commercial, property and corporate instructions. Tax is treated as part of the same continuous file as the transaction or the dispute.
Stamp duty and registration often decide whether a conveyance, family settlement or security document will survive challenge. The chambers’ published study on registration after legislative change informs how such papers are read in conference and in court.
Where an assessment, demand or penalty intersects with a commercial recovery, insolvency or property suit, strategy is coordinated so that one proceeding does not undo the other. Opinions state the risk, the counter-argument and the recommended path with equal clarity.
Whether the need is planning, compliance or contested representation, our lawyers remain focused on practical, decision-ready counsel — with professional integrity and client-focused service.

Approach
What the statute requires. What the document must achieve. Which forum hears it.
We ask what the document or transaction must achieve, what the statute actually requires, and which forum — if any — should hear the question. Advice is written for decision, not for decoration; litigation is prepared with the same care.
