Infosys says DGGI withdraws tax demand of ₹3,898 crore for FY18 | Mint

Infosys has announced that the Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) has withdrawn a tax demand of INR 3,898 crore for the financial year ending March 2018. This decision provides partial relief to the Indian software company, as the ongoing tax battle remains unresolved. Another tax demand of INR 28,505 crore from the remaining five years is still pending. The withdrawal suggests a potential early resolution of the matter, as the government is said to be considering Infosys' plea that GST does not apply to services provided by its overseas branches.
