<\/figure>Vodafone Group<\/a> has confirmed to ET that it has decided to settle its retro tax dispute with the Indian government<\/a>, thereby ending the long standing battle between the UK based behemoth and the government.
\"We can confirm we have filed an application. We have always been confident that no tax liability arose in respect of our acquisition of the Indian business, and this was borne out by the decisions of the Supreme Court<\/a> of India and the International Court of Arbitration,\" said the telco in its first official confirmation.
ET in its December 3 edition had reported that the UK telco had filed the application, signalling the end of retrospective tax battle. After processing the application, the company will be issued Form 2 . This is the next step that signals acceptance of the application, setting the stage for the issue of refund of tax paid.
<\/div><\/div>The government has to refund Rs44.7 crore to Vodafone<\/a> that it had collected as tax.
The battle between the telco and government started when In 2012, the government retrospectively amended the income tax law to tax offshore deals involving the transfer of Indian assets after the Supreme Court ruled in favour of Vodafone.
Vodafone had acquired a controlling stake in Hutchison Essar<\/a> in 2007 in an $11.2 billion deal executed overseas. India's tax department had claimed that Vodafone should have withheld tax and issued a notice seeking Rs11,218 crore, later augmented by Rs7,900 crore in penalties.
Vodafone sought arbitration under the India-Netherlands Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement in 2014. The Permanent Court of Arbitration<\/a> held that the retrospective legislation was in breach of the \"guarantee of fair and equitable treatment\".
