About the webinar
India introduced the Equalisation Levy (EL) as a unilateral measure to tax the digital economy. It quickly gained international attention with the US government initiating a Section 301 investigation under their Trade Act, 1974 on discrimination against US companies. A US Trade Representative (USTR) investigation report has identified the EL as “unreasonable or discriminatory” and is actionable under Section 301. It could potentially attract withdrawal of US trade concessions or duties on Indian exports.
In this webinar, we shall have a comprehensive discussion on the USTR proceedings, and its wide-ranging implications on India and will be held on Monday, 25 January, 2021, 8:30 PM to 10:00 PM India Time.
