'Transfer Pricing Disputes Burden Developing Nations': Nirmala Sitharaman at BRICS Tax Meet

India wants the groups to outlast its chairship and give BRICS economies a stronger voice in global tax talks, officials said.

  • On Wednesday, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman proposed two new BRICS working groups in New Delhi dedicated to taxation, aiming to address challenges disproportionately affecting developing economies.
  • Sitharaman noted that transfer pricing disputes burden developing countries "disproportionately." The BRICS tax track prioritizes using technology to make administration more precise while reducing individual discretion.
  • Revenue Secretary Arvind Shrivastava noted that experts spent two days reviewing the scope of these groups. The Transfer Pricing Working Group will share experience on treaty interpretation and Mutual Agreement Procedure mechanisms.
  • Designed to outlast India's Chairship, these working groups create sustained institutional space for progress regardless of leadership rotation. The Minister stated every BRICS member has experienced these tax problems.
  • Decisions made over the next few years will shape cross-border taxation for a generation. China assumes the rotating BRICS Presidency in 2027 as the bloc continues negotiating rules under the United Nations Framework Convention.
