India Urges UK To Consider Improved Tax Rules For Professionals

At the Conservative Friends of India (CFIN) annual dinner in London on Wednesday evening, Indian High Commissioner to the UK Ruchi Ghanashyam urged UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid to look into regulations around compulsory tax contributions required from Indian professionals who come to the UK only for a short period, resulting in a loss of millions of pounds.

Referring to some latest figures from Grant Thornton's "India Meet Britain Tracker 2019", the Indian envoy pointed to an increase in the number of Indian companies operating in the UK over the previous year to 842 in 2019.
