India's tax landscape is no longer just evolving—it is becoming increasingly data-driven, enforcement-led, and central to business decision-making
With intensified scrutiny from tax authorities, real-time data validations under GST, and a noticeable rise in disputes and reassessments, tax functions today operate in a far more complex and high-stakes environment. At the same time, global developments such as BEPS 2.0 and the implementation of Pillar Two are pushing organizations to rethink their international tax strategies and readiness.
Beyond compliance, the role of the tax function is undergoing a fundamental shift. Tax leaders are now expected to drive cash flow efficiency, manage enterprise risk, support business structuring, and contribute directly to financial outcomes.
While investments in automation, AI, and digital tax solutions continue to accelerate, many organizations are still navigating critical questions—what truly delivers value, how to build reliable data foundations, and how to integrate technology into existing tax and finance ecosystems.
The 16th Edition – Tax Strategy & Planning Summit & Awards 2026 brings together India's leading tax and finance heads to move beyond theory and focus on real-world execution, challenges, and outcomes. Through practical insights, peer-driven discussions, and experience-led perspectives, the summit will enable organizations to build resilient, audit-ready, and future-focused tax functions in an increasingly demanding environment.
