Taxation is difficult and highly technical. Even most lawyers are quite scared of tax laws, in law school as well as afterwards. However, tax law is very rewarding, and perhaps one area where competition is not as tough. Corporate taxation is especially highly rewarding.
India has complex tax laws. Despite significant simplification of indirect tax laws through the introduction of GST, laws remain complicated and are changed fairly frequently. It is also a service that almost every business requires.
Of course, tax lawyer’s mainstays are income tax and other tax disputes. However, significant opportunities also arise in every transaction as tax lawyers provide very critical inputs with respect to the tax efficiency of every transaction. Whether a company should be bought by the acquisition of shares or slump sale, whether to acquire the subsidiary or the holding company in another country, how to reduce tax liabilities in each transaction - these things are decided by tax lawyers.
Some of India’s most famous lawyers such as Nani Palkhivala, Harish Salve, Arvind Datar etc. started as tax lawyers and eventually became the most illustrious constitutional lawyers.
This is partly because tax law matters involve high stakes, and the government keeps coming up with new tax laws and changes existing laws, opening an opportunity for challenging these laws in the court.
The opportunity to build big law firms is also very high for tax lawyers. Several leading full-service law firms today were originally started by tax lawyers. Good examples will be Nishith Desai Associates, Lakshmikumaran and Sridharan, Economic Law Practice, Vaish Associates etc. In these cases, highly profitable tax practices eventually led to the creation of larger full-service corporate law practices.
In short, tax law offers opportunities like few other areas of law. It is evergreen, always in high demand and good tax lawyers are always short in supply.
Companies that earn thousands of crores have to pay taxes in hundreds of crores. They will go to great lengths to legally reduce their tax burden, which straight on adds to their profits. Naturally, it is lucrative to be an effective tax lawyer.

The course is very detailed. I could understand various concepts in tax very well. I liked the module on transfer pricing agreements and I have understood how it works. The faculty explains concepts well. I feel confident that when I deal with a matter at an internship/ work, I will now know where to start.
Gulrukh Sidhu Law Student, Army Law School
The corporate tax course is a good initiative for understanding the basics. It gives a fair idea regarding direct tax to lawyers, who would otherwise have to struggle with the complexities. The exercises are very useful and designed with a view to enable and enrich oneself.

This course has helped me understand and widen my knowledge on various topics related to drafting. I am able to have good discussions now with people of the same field. The best part of this was the motivation to write articles, it makes you research and learn in an interesting manner. People who are going to draft matters based on points gathered on the topic, can expect to benefit with their drafting being more specific and explanatory.

The modules of this course are designed with due care and attention to address significant and pertinent aspects which one encounters on a daily basis in commerce and transactions, rather than being merely academic. It is heartening to see that the modules present a significant interface with practical aspects of taxation laws like valuations, financial statements as well. Learners who are aware and conversant with these aspects are bound to contribute significantly in shaping the legal and tax policy of their organizations, irrespective of whether they are client facing or in house.
Learning corporate taxation will enable you to work in tax firms, Big Four Accounting firms and as a tax lawyer in corporate law firms, apart from excelling as an arguing counsel in tax litigation. You will also be able to structure transactions as a corporate lawyer more effectively, as tax considerations are critical for structuring. The course outline is fairly detailed in that regard.
The course outline is good, and Lawsikho has a very innovative methodology to ensure delivery of practical insights.
It looks like a good mix of predominantly direct taxation, International taxation and the basics of GST. It’s made of elements you will actually use in your day to day work related to corporate taxation rather than a detailed study of a whole lot of things which might be dealt with once in a while. Study of allowable expenses in income from business or profession, insights of DTAAs, tax havens, transfer pricing etc. and dispute resolution can be quite beneficial to someone looking to work in this field.
The direct taxation impact of practically all different corporate transactions visibly seems to be covered. It also deals with international taxation which is a definite value add. Stamp duty can sometimes be a factor driving or pulling back a deal and that is covered as well, which makes the course quite comprehensive.
The course outline is extensive and practical. I would like to congratulate Lawsikho team for bringing out a comprehensive course on tax laws. I have found that curriculum has been carefully selected to cover most relevant aspects of corporate tax regime with a practical approach. There seems a fine balance between provisions of domestic income tax, International tax and GST. It also provides advance topics such as GAAR, POEM and BEPS in line with Indian Revenue Authorities recent initiatives to keep pace with Global developments. I think this course will prove very useful for every tax person whether in practice or industry.

Students of LawSikho will be provided hard copy materials within 30 days of your course commencement date.
However, online classes, videos, regulatory updates and periodic upgrades to the courses cannot be included in the hard copies. We will provide you with hard copy material for all important chapters. We keep adding many new chapters from time to time and there are restrictions on page numbers so all online material cannot be available in hard copy. We would keep adding new material online from time to time, so please do not expect all such material to be made available in the hard copy also. You can use the hard copy materials for your reference, however, we recommend that you do not exclusively rely on hard copies for cracking the assessment test and the exercises. Please refer to the online library of materials from time to time.
Note: We will send hard copy material through our service partners. We have three service partners.
1. Indian Speed Post (Provides delivery ‘anywhere in India’ under contractual service)
2. Delhivery
3. Trackon Couriers Pvt Limited
If our service partners do not have a presence in your area and want to get the hard copy, you can send us a specific request.
LawSikho will not be responsible if the speed post bounces back or hard copy material is not delivered. We will levy the courier charge on you in such a scenario.
Please visit the respective course page to learn more about the hard copy study material policy of that course.
If international students require hard copy material, they need to share their correct address and we will let them know the cost of the courier which they need to pay and then the hard copy will be dispatched. This is the process because the cost of an international courier is very high compared to the domestic courier within India (for domestic courier we have no additional charges). Some international students provide us with an Indian address for couriering hard copy material. In those cases, we charge nothing extra for the courier.

Our students who are already working earn over Rs 1 lakh per month on average. That should give you an idea about what is so beneficial about our courses!
Note: You can check our MEPSC (a sector skills council under NSDC) certified courses in the course section.
An online Live class is a video conference-based class that you can attend from mobile, tablet and personal computer through an application. You can see the teacher and the teacher can see you. You can even share your screen with the teacher for comments if the teacher requests it, and the teacher can show you his or her screen. You can see other people attending the class also. There is usually a lot of discussion amongst the students and teachers in the class. It is very much like a live classroom except that you do not have to travel to access the class; you can access it on the go as long as you have internet and a device.
We will point you out the relevant reading material and templates and precedences you need to solve an assignment. You can also freely discuss with other students in the course WhatsApp group. You can post queries in the learning management system as well while working on assignments. During the live sessions, you can ask questions to the expert and get your issue resolved. Sometimes it may be possible to schedule a call with evaluators and discuss with them, but this is at the discretion of the evaluator and at a time of his or her convenience. We cannot handle unlimited calls with every small question. You have to respect the time and availability of the evaluators also. For that, you already have the Learning Management System and the WhatsApp group, where you can post an unlimited number of doubts.
Our training methodology is unique. While any outside authority does not endorse it, the success of our students speaks for itself. Our methodology is described in detail in the previous questions. The legal industry loves to hire our students who have gone through the entire training we provided. Major companies have been hiring us to train their legal teams and managerial executives with cutting edge legal courses. This is proof of our success.

However, the course is conducted through an online learning management system, enabling students to access study materials from anywhere in the world at their own time and convenience. Course materials will be accessible on the online learning management system, which you can assess on a laptop/desktop. You can also access the course on your phone by downloading the LawSikho app. We may upload some course materials around the time of your class about the relevant issue. Apart from this, you will have access to significant hard copy material as well.
Live sessions on exercises shared will be conducted online every week. Once or twice a month, you will also have a session on writing influential articles and networking skills. In total, students will have 5-6 live sessions every month. At times there could be extra sessions that are optional to attend.
Our experts' weekly online sessions will include feedback on the previous week's exercise and explain new concepts related to upcoming exercises.
Attendance for sessions is not mandatory but crucial for learning to perform exercises that add value. Students who miss the session can watch the recorded versions of the sessions conducted on the Learning Management System (LMS) and the assignment portal (anything that is easier for you, it is uploaded on both platforms). We will add the recorded session to LMS within 48 working hours.
It is highly recommended that you complete weekly exercises. It is mandatory to submit 50% of subject exercises per course requirement and all writing assignments.
All study materials, including text, videos, drafting exercises, templates and regular tests, will be available only on the LMS and accessed using your login ID for the LMS. Students can also access the course through the state of the art mobile Apps, making learning convenient and accessible on a real-time basis.
Some courses require 100% of subject exercise submission. Please visit the course page to know the number of exercises and assignments to be submitted for a particular course.
