Consequent to the implemented economic liberalisation in India during the 1990s, substantial international investment activity began within the Indian capital markets and through corporate vehicles with an increasingly vibrant fervour. In fact, today, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) play a crucial role in the liquidity, growth and vitality seen in Indian capital markets. Simultaneously, along with increasing FII activity, as a result of the favourable economic and political climate, India also witnessed an increasing quantum of Foreign Domestic Investment (FDI).
The regulation of these investment channels and instruments was at the front and centre of economic policy debate, a part of which revolves around taxation. There is undoubtedly a proximate and intelligible nexus between taxation and the employment of these investment tools. A taxation regime that is favourable can work in effectively attracting more international investment which in turn would enhance market liquidity, activity, and growth.1 While FIIs and FDIs may appear to be similar investment channels, for the most part, they serve entirely different objectives, and operate in substantially different manners and are subject to different regulatory regimes in terms of exchange, economic and taxation policy.
In the coming sections of this paper, the authors have attempted to analyse several aspects of FII and FDI taxation in India. The first section delineates the differences in FIIs and FDIs, their market strategy, modus operandi, and objectives, while ascertaining what exactly these investment channels imply and the various investment vehicles that may be employed by foreign actors.
The subsequent section of the paper outlines the tax regime applicable to such FDIs and FIIs, depending on the organisational scheme and objective of the business vehicle so employed for the investment.
Given that FIIs and FDIs essentially involve a foreign element, the question of double taxation is one which necessarily requires to be addressed. To that end, in the third section of this paper, the authors have looked at Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAAs) (Tax Treaties) in the context of FIIs and FDIs.

Recent Tax Developments in India - DTC 2013 & APA updatesEY
This presentation is based upon two recent tax developments in India i.e. The Direct Taxes Code (DTC) 2013 and Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) updates.
Direct Taxes Code 2013 : DTC was introduced in the Indian Parliament in August 2010. Since then, there have been recommendations from various stakeholders, as well as, from the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance. As a follow-up on this initiative and as stated by the Finance Minister in his interim budget speech on 17 February 2014 a “revised" version of DTC 2013, has been released.
Advance Pricing Agreement : Another tax development that was closely followed and tracked by all stakeholders was APA, which was the launch in 2012 to provide a voluntary process, whereby, the Tax Authority and the taxpayer can resolve TP issues in a principled and cooperative manner on a prospective basis. Since the launch of the APA program, there has been an enthusiastic response from taxpayers and recent reports indicate that the Indian Tax Administration has concluded a few unilateral APAs.

The development of ports leads to more economic activities in the city as well as the country. It also helps in increasing the trade flow between nations, also benefiting other sectors such as logistics, etc.
The expectancy theory was proposed by Victor Vroom of Yale School of Management in 1964. Vroom stresses and focuses on outcomes, and not on needs unlike Maslow and Herzberg. The theory states that the intensity of a tendency to perform in a particular manner is dependent on the intensity of an expectation that the performance will be followed by a definite outcome and on the appeal of the outcome to the individual.
The Expectancy theory states that employee’s motivation is an outcome of how much an individual wants a reward (Valence), the assessment that the likelihood that the effort will lead to expected performance (Expectancy) and the belief that the performance will lead to reward (Instrumentality). In short, Valence is the significance associated by an individual about the expected outcome. It is an expected and not the actual satisfaction that an employee expects to receive after achieving the goals. Expectancy is the faith that better efforts will result in better performance. Expectancy is influenced by factors such as possession of appropriate skills for performing the job, availability of right resources, availability of crucial information and getting the required support for completing the job.
Instrumentality is the faith that if you perform well, then a valid outcome will be there. Instrumentality is affected by factors such as believe in the people who decide who receives what outcome, the simplicity of the process deciding who gets what outcome, and clarity of relationship between performance and outcomes. Thus, the expectancy theory concentrates on the following three relationships:
• Effort-performance relationship: What is the likelihood that the individual’s effort be recognized in his performance appraisal?
• Performance-reward relationship: It talks about the extent to which the employee believes that getting a good performance appraisal leads to organizational rewards.
• Rewards-personal goals relationship: It is all about the attractiveness or appeal of the potential reward to the individual.
Vroom was of view that employees consciously decide whether to perform or not at the job. This decision solely depended on the employee’s motivation level which in turn depends on three factors of expectancy, valence and instrumentality.
Personality determinants & attributesIsha Joshi
The term ‘personality’ is derived from the Latin word ‘persona’ which means a mask. According to K. Young, “Personality is a …. patterned body of habits, traits, attitudes and ideas of an individual, as these are organised externally into roles and statuses, and as they relate internally to motivation, goals, and various aspects of selfhood.” G. W. Allport defined it as “a person’s pattern of habits, attitudes, and traits which determine his adjustment to his environment.”
According to Robert E. Park and Earnest W. Burgess, personality is “the sum and organisation of those traits which determine the role of the individual in the group.” Herbert A. Bloch defined it as “the characteristic organisation of the individual’s habits, attitudes, values, emotional characteristics……. which imparts consistency to the behaviour of the individual.” According to Arnold W. Green, “personality is the sum of a person’s values (the objects of his striving, such as ideas, prestige, power and sex) plus his non- physical traits (his habitual ways of acting and reacting).” According to Linton, personality embraces the total “organised aggregate of psychological processes and status pertaining to the individual.”
In 1959, Frederick Herzberg, a behavioural scientist proposed a two-factor theory or the motivator-hygiene theory. According to Herzberg, there are some job factors that result in satisfaction while there are other job factors that prevent dissatisfaction. According to Herzberg, the opposite of “Satisfaction” is “No satisfaction” and the opposite of “Dissatisfaction” is “No Dissatisfaction”.
Erikson’s (1959) theory of psychosocial development has eight distinct stages. Like Freud, Erikson assumes that a crisis occurs at each stage of development. For Erikson (1963), these crises are of a psychosocial nature because they involve psychological needs of the individual (i.e. psycho) conflicting with the needs of society (i.e. social).
According to the theory, successful completion of each stage results in a healthy personality and the acquisition of basic virtues. Basic virtues are characteristic strengths which the ego can use to resolve subsequent crises.
Failure to successfully complete a stage can result in a reduced ability to complete further stages and therefore a more unhealthy personality and sense of self. These stages, however, can be resolved successfully at a later time.
Clayton P. Alderfer's ERG theory from 1969 condenses Maslow's five human needs into three categories: Existence, Relatedness and Growth.
1. Existence Needs
Include all material and physiological desires (e.g., food, water, air, clothing, safety, physical love and affection). Maslow's first two levels.
2. Relatedness Needs
Encompass social and external esteem; relationships with significant others like family, friends, co-workers and employers . This also means to be recognized and feel secure as part of a group or family. Maslow's third and fourth levels.
3. Growth Needs
Internal esteem and self actualization; these impel a person to make creative or productive effects on himself and the environment (e.g., to progress toward one's ideal self). Maslow's fourth and fifth levels. This includes desires to be creative and productive, and to complete meaningful tasks.
Devaluation vs quantitaative restrictionsIsha Joshi
Devaluation is the official reduction in a country's currency by its government. The difference between devaluation and depreciation is that devaluation is done by the country's government whereas, depreciation happens due to market forces.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. INTRODUCTION
Consequent to the implemented economic liberalisation
in India during the 1990s, substantial international
investment activity began within the Indian capital markets
and through corporate vehicles with an increasingly
vibrant energy.
In fact, today, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) play a
crucial role in the liquidity, growth and vitality seen in
Indian capital markets.
Simultaneously, along with increasing FII activity, as a
result of the favourable economic and political climate,
India also witnessed an increasing quantum of Foreign
Direct Investment (FDI).
4. Foreign investment in India is regulated by the Reserve Bank of
India (RBI), through SEBI as a nodal agency, as is envisaged under
Sections 6 and 47 of the Foreign Exchange Management Act,
1999 and under the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer or
Issue of Security by a Person Resident outside India) Regulations,
2000.
FIIs under Indian law are defined as institutions established or
incorporated outside India which propose to make investments
in securities in India.
These FIIs, governed by the SEBI (Foreign Institutional
Investors) Regulations, 1995, must make an application for
certification for the purpose of purchasing and selling Indian
securities as FIIs from the Indian market regulator.
5. According to the stipulations of International
Monetary Fund (IMF) and Organization for
Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD),
the acquisitions of at least ten per cent of the
equity capital or voting power in public or
private corporations by non-resident investors
qualifies such investment to be designated as
FDI.
6. FII TAXATION
FIIs are subjected to a special scheme of taxation in the
Income – tax Act, 1961. Section 115 AD of the Act is a self-
contained code which provides for their taxation.
Section 115 AD of the Act is however subject to Section
90 of the Act read with the provisions of the Double Tax
Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) of the home country of the
FII which if more beneficial will override the provisions of
section 115 AD.
7. RULE 115 AD
1) Where the total income of a Foreign Institutional Investor includes—
(a) income [other than income by way of dividends referred to in section 115-O]
received in respect of securities (other than units referred to in section 115AB); or]
(b) income by way of short-term or long-term capital gains arising from the transfer of
such securities, the income-tax payable shall be the aggregate of—
(i) the amount of income-tax calculated on the income in respect of securities
referred to in clause (a), if any, included in the total income, at the rate of
twenty per cent :
(ii) the amount of income-tax calculated on the income by way of short-term
capital gains referred to in clause (b), if any, included in the total income, at the
rate of thirty per cent :
(iii) the amount of income-tax calculated on the income by way of long-term
capital gains referred to in clause (b), if any, included in the total income, at the
rate of ten per cent; and
(iv) the amount of income-tax with which the Foreign Institutional Investor
would have been chargeable had its total income been reduced by the amount
of income referred to in clause (a) and clause (b).
8. RULE 115 AD
2) Where the gross total income of the Foreign Institutional
Investor—
(a) consists only of income in respect of securities referred to
in clause (a) of sub-section (1), no deduction shall be allowed
to it under sections 28 to 44C or clause (i) or clause (iii) of
section 57 or under Chapter VI-A;
(b) includes any income referred to in clause (a) or clause (b)
of sub-section (1), the gross total income shall be reduced
by the amount of such income and the deduction under
Chapter VI-A shall be allowed as if the gross total income as
so reduced, were the gross total income of the Foreign
Institutional Investor.
9. FDI TAXATION
FDI must be made subject to the provisions of the FDI
policy and the extant regulations in respect of procedural
compliance with the exchange control regulations.
FDI must be made in a business vehicle such as a
company, a partnership concern, a joint venture, or a sole
proprietorship and so on. The tax payable for the business
activities of the FDI will depend on the business vehicle so
employed.
10. ASPECTS OF TAXATION
Direct Taxes:
The investor is required to pay tax on net income earned in India. The rates
of taxes differ among structures.
Company:
The company incorporated in India is required to pay 30%
tax+surcharge+education cess on net income earned. It is also required to
deduct tax on profits distributed @15.5%+surcharge+education cess.
Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs):
LLPs are required to pay tax @30%+surcharge+education cess. There is no
tax on profits distributed.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT):
18.5%+SC+EC- Indian tax law requires MAT to be paid by corporations in
cases where the tax payable according to the regular tax provisions is less
than 18.5% of their book profits. However MAT credit (MAT-actual tax) can
be carried forward in next 10 years for set-off against regular tax payable
during the subsequent years subject to certain conditions.
12. ×The DTAA, or Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement is a tax treaty
signed between India and other countries so that taxpayers can avoid
paying double taxes on their income earned from the source country as
well as the residence country.
×At present, India has double tax avoidance treaties with more than 80
countries around the world.
×The need for DTAA arises out of the imbalance in tax collection on
global income of individuals.
×If a person aims to do business in a foreign country, he/she may end
up paying income taxes in both cases, i.e. the country where the
income is earned and the country where the individual holds his/her
citizenship or residence.
13. For instance, if you are moving to a different country
from India while leaving income sources such as interest
from deposits in here, you will be charged interest by
both India and the country of your current residence as
per your consolidated global earnings.
Such a scenario can have you pay twice the tax over
the same income.
This is where the DTAA becomes useful for taxpayers.
14. CONCLUSION
Whether your business in a corporation or a sole proprietorship,
you are going to pay taxes on the profit you make..
Different decisions, such as how long you hold an investment or
where you open a store, have different tax consequences.
Federal taxes are the same everywhere, but state income tax
rates vary across the country. Given their choice, companies prefer
to locate their operations in states that have favourable, low rates
on corporate income.
It's one of the things that explains why retail stores sometimes
cluster along the border of a low-tax state, where they can
compete for high-tax state customers without being subject to the
tax bills.
15. CONCLUSION
Time can make a big difference to your capital gains when you
sell stocks, bonds or other investments and assets.
Taxes reduce your investable income, that is, the amount of
income you can invest. When you pay taxes before you invest, you
have less money to invest into the stock market and other
investments.
Some investments are more tax-efficient than others. Interest
from municipal bonds are not usually taxed at the federal level.
There are other investments (like dividend paying stocks) that
sometimes come with preferred tax rates.
However, tax laws can change at anytime.
