Critical areas such as asset disposals, business restructuring, tax incentives, stamp duty, customs regulations, and transfer pricing have been covered in legal disputes in the region in the past year. Some have been gaining much buzz globally.
Keysight Technologies (M) Sdn Bhd vs DGIR is one such example. This landmark case against the Malaysian tax authority involving the disposal of intellectual property rights has significant implications for the tax treatment of restructuring activities involving asset and IP disposals.
Come hear directly from the Malaysian team involved in the case - Ms Adeline Wong, Partner, Wong & Partners (member firm of Baker McKenzie International) and Head of the Asia Pacific Tax Practice Group of Baker McKenzie, as well as Mr Jason Liang, Partner, and Mr Jeff Sum, Senior Associate, both from Wong & Partners.
From Indonesia, Mr Ponti Partogi, Partner, HHP Law Firm (member firm of Baker & McKenzie International), will be sharing on audit trends and court cases related to the recharacterisation of services and other business profit-related income, the domestic TP adjustments, as well as the introduction of relevant secondary adjustments. We will also discuss the Tax Court's perspectives in making the decisions.
Be sure you are part of the discussion in this not-to-be-missed half-day dissect of the region’s tax cases, aimed at equipping tax practitioners and businesses with the insights needed to anticipate audit trends and effectively counteract the challenges posed by tax authorities.
