Budget 2022: In conversation with Vishwas Panjiar
IBC may come up in Budget session for faster resolution, cross-border norms says Vishwas Panjiar, Partner, Nangia Andersen LLP.
According to Mr. Panjiar, an acquisition through a CIRP process is like a baptism where the troubled business gets a new life and free from most baggage. However, some of the tax baggage seems to carry on. For the acquirer, these ambiguous tax areas make it an unviable acquisition thus defeating the purpose of IBC. Relief from the contentious problems such as the tax consequences of post-CIRP loan waivers , capital gains and stamp duty on asset transfers, recipient taxation, and MAT obligations should be granted to make the process trouble-free.

Budget 2022: In Conversation with Sunil Gidwani,
According to our partner, Sunil Gidwani “Clearly there is need to bring NBFC taxation at par with Banks. Over the years, RBI has tightened NBFC regulatory framework especially for large and deposit taking NBFC and brought it close to the regulations applicable to the Banks. However, the tax laws have not kept pace and hence there are several areas in which NBFCs suffer higher tax cost or compliance burden as compared to banks. For example, their interest on NPAs is taxed on accrual basis and not on receipt basis. Their interest income suffers TDS deducted by borrowers. Interest earned by customers do not enjoy same exemption as Banks’ customers. Large cash withdrawals by them suffer newly introduced 2% TDS resulting in cash flow issues”.

Budget 2022: In conversation with Nischal S Arora
According to Mr. Arora, Fiscal year 2021-22 has been a year of recoveries and urgent fiscal interventions. We expect fiscal year 2022-23 to be a greater challenge to sustain growth momentum. In order to prepare for an imminent stagflationary sentiment in coming fiscal year, we hope the Government continues its expansionary fiscal spending to spur growth with a cautious monetary policy to manage inflation. Industry in general and MSMEs in particular, need support by way of light touch regulations and greater fiscal stimulus.
