ANNUAL
TAX LEADERS
INDIA
SUMMIT 2026
As India enters a new era of tax transformation, tax leaders are navigating one of the most dynamic regulatory environments in recent history. The implementation of the New Income Tax Act, 2025 (effective from 1 April 2026), the continued evolution of GST 2.0, increasing adoption of AI-driven tax administration, and the growing influence of global tax transparency frameworks such as OECD Pillar Two are fundamentally reshaping the role of corporate tax functions.
Tax leaders today are expected to move beyond traditional compliance and become strategic advisors, balancing regulatory obligations with business growth, operational efficiency, and risk management. At the same time, tax authorities are leveraging advanced analytics, e-invoicing ecosystems, faceless assessments, integrated data platforms, and real-time monitoring capabilities to drive greater transparency and compliance.
On the indirect tax front, discussions around GST rate rationalization, real-time GST compliance, e-Invoicing expansion, next-generation E-Way Bill frameworks, Input Tax Credit governance, and the convergence of GST, Customs, and cross-border trade compliance are expected to significantly influence business operations and supply chains.
Globally, organizations are adapting to the implementation of Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax rules, evolving transfer pricing requirements, digital business models, and growing demands for cross-border tax transparency. The emergence of AI-powered business models, digital assets, data monetization, and intangible value creation is further challenging conventional tax principles and reshaping the future of tax policy.
The 5th Annual Tax Leaders India Summit 2026 will convene India's foremost tax and finance experts to explore policy directions, address implementation challenges, and exchange best practices for navigating this fast-evolving tax landscape.
