1 Finance Bill, 2015 Direct Tax Highlights Bansi S. Mehta & Co. All the following amendment are made effective from Assessment Years , unless specifically mentioned otherwise. I - Residential Status, Taxation of Non-Residents/FIIs etc. Tests for determining residential status of a company are amended Test of Control and Management wholly in India is replaced by the test of Place of Effective Management in India ( POEM ). Intention is to ensure that by merely holding board meetings outside India, a company should not be regarded as a non-resident although, in substance, its effective management is in India. POEM is an internationally recognized concept and is expected to provide certainty of interpretation. It is defined as a place where key management decisions for conduct of business entity taken as a whole are taken. Government is expected to issue guiding principles in due course in this behalf. Tests for determining number of days stay in India, in case of a crew member of a foreign bound ship who is a citizen of India, shall be laid down in rules to be prescribed. This is with a view to avoid uncertainties as regards such determination. This amendment is retrospective w.e.f. A.Y Provisions relating to taxation of transfer of shares of Indian Companies indirectly held by foreign entities (through another foreign shareholding entity) that were introduced in the 2012 Budget are partially amended to clarify as to when such transfers would be taxable. Taxability would arise only if the value of the Indian Company s shares held by the foreign shareholding entity exceeds Rs. 10 Crore and such shares represent at least 50% of the value of all assets owned by the foreign shareholding entity. Such value shall be determined in a manner to be prescribed in Rules. Where the shares of Indian Company are not the only assets held by the foreign shareholding entity, the capital gains taxable in the hands of the transferor would be determined based on some attribution methodology to be prescribed in Rules.
2 Such indirect transfers shall not be chargeable to tax in India if the transferor holds less than 5% stake in the foreign shareholding entity and it does not have any rights of management or control in the foreign shareholding entity. If the shares in the foreign shareholding entity are transferred in an amalgamation or a demerger taking place outside India, such transfer would enjoy exemption from capital gains subject to certain conditions. Correspondingly, the cost of acquisition in the hands of the amalgamated /resulting company shall be the cost of acquisition of previous owner. Indian entity in which assets are held by the foreign entity is obligated to furnish details of offshore transactions modifying the ownership control or structure of the Indian entity Section 9(1)(v) is amended to provide that if an Indian branch of a foreign bank pays interest to its foreign head office or to any other foreign branch, such interest would be chargeable to tax in India in the hands of the foreign bank. This is in addition to taxation of the branch profits in India. A foreign established investment fund, that employs a fund manager (not being an employee of the fund) who is situated in India, shall not be taxed in India on its investment income merely because the fund manager is situated in India. There are several conditions specified in this behalf that need to be fulfilled by the fund and by the fund manager to enjoy this exemption. The fund is required to comply with filing requirements that will be prescribed in Rules. Tax on royalty and fees for technical services payable to a non-resident has been reduced from the present rate of 25% to 10% on gross amount. When an employee of the foreign subsidiary of an Indian company who has earned GDRs of the Indian company under ESOPs, becomes a resident in India and earns dividend on those GDRs or earns long term capital gains on sale thereof, he enjoys concessional tax treatment under section 115ACA. This tax regime was introduced when the earlier GDR scheme was in force, which permitted GDR issue only for listed shares. Under the new GDR scheme, GDRs can be issued even for unlisted shares. The definition of GDR in section 115ACA is amended to clarify that the concessional tax treatment will be available only for GDRs issued in respect of listed shares.
3 Income from transfer of securities (being long term capital asset) by Foreign Institutional Investor ( FII ) is to be excluded from chargeability of MAT and corresponding expenses are to be added to book profits u/s 115JB.

Penal implications are introduced on submission of inaccurate/ non-submission of information in the prescribed form and manner u/s 195. II Business Trust: Under Section 2(13A) a business trust must be registered as an Infrastructure Investment Trust ( IIT ) under SEBI(IIT) Regulations, 2014 or a Real Estate Investment Trust ( REIT ) under the SEBI(REIT) Regulations, The requirement to notify them with Central Government is done away with. Income of a business trust, being a REIT, by way of renting or leasing or letting out any real estate asset owned directly by such business trust to be exempt under section 10(23FCA). Long-term Capital Gains arising from transfer of units of a business trust which were acquired by the assessee in consideration of a transfer of a capital asset, being share of a special purpose vehicle to a business trust in exchange of units allotted by that trust to the transferor as referred to in Sec. 47 (xvii) exempted u/s. 10(38).

If investment fund does not pay / credit income to unit holders in that year, such income shall be deemed to have been credited to their accounts in the proportion of their entitlement.
