GIFT City (IFSC) Advisory
Indian legal, tax and commercial considerations for proposed or existing IFSC activities.
Understanding the proposed activity
A business considering GIFT City needs to identify its proposed activities before deciding which requirements are relevant. We assist with Indian legal research, review of the proposed arrangement and an initial issues note. Applicable requirements depend on the activity and must be checked for the particular matter.
Commercial documentation
We draft or review specified service agreements, vendor arrangements, confidentiality agreements and other commercial documents. The output is a draft document, marked-up agreement or note on contractual risks.
Tax and regulatory questions
Support can include review of Indian GST, Customs and other defined legal questions, and preparation of a legal note or draft correspondence. We distinguish analysis and documentation from operational filings and regulated services.
Coordination and limits of scope
Where incorporation, company-secretarial filings, accounting, certifications or a regulated activity require other qualified professionals, those services must be separately engaged. We can coordinate legal inputs within the agreed scope. OneHorizon Legal does not promise regulatory approval, a registration or any particular tax treatment.
