International Business and Transfer Pricing written by Shri S.C. Mishra and edited by Shri S. P. Singh, represents a profound integration of legal principles, economic theories, and judicial precedents spanning global commerce evolution. Structured across six chapters, the book examines international trade from ancient explorations to digital MNEs, intra-group structures, the Arm's Length Principle with DEMPE analysis, global frameworks from 1928 Revenue Act through BEPS, and India's regime comparisons.
Authored by a distinguished scholar whose "insistence on clarity, structured reasoning, and analytical precision" marked his tenure in the Indian Revenue Service at various senior positions as policy maker and as administrator, this volume reflects lifetime scholarship and professional excellence.
This book combines conceptual depth with practical relevance—connecting statutory provisions with business realities while maintaining characteristic brevity. As the editor has noted, it is "a goldmine for students."
This volume is a tribute to Shri Mishra’s intellectual legacy that makes it an essential reading for tax professionals, policymakers, and students.
S.C. Mishra was former Director-General of Income-tax and author of Transfer Pricing Manual and Transfer Pricing in India: From Inception to BEPS. His areas of specialisation include tax policy, capacity building and training. He had wide experience in legislative drafting and amendment of direct tax laws. He participated in programmes on training methods, tax treaties and comparative tax laws in India and overseas. He also conducted training programmes on taxation of non-residents. He was involved in designing training programmes for officers of developing countries. As a tax administrator, he investigated cases of tax frauds including cross-border transactions. However, the role that he cherished the most was as a training administrator where his job included identification of training needs, designing course profiles and evaluation of these programmes.
He was deeply interested in English literature and literature of Indian languages.
He loved going for long walks and listening to Hindustani classical music,
He breathed his last on 14th August 2024, while working on this book.
