EU

CJEU annuls EC decision that concluded Luxembourg tax rulings granted to the Engie Group were State Aid
On 5 December 2023, the Grand Chamber of the Court of the Justice of the European Union rendered its judgment in the joined cases C-451/21 P and C-454/21 P regarding the appeals brought by Luxembourg and the Engie group companies against the judgments of the General Court of the European Union (“GC”) of 12 May 2021 (T-516/18 and T-525/18) that previously confirmed the existence of State aid under article 107 TFEU.

European Union regulations beyond CSRD
The European Green Deal is a package of policy initiatives introduced by the European Commission (EC) in December 2019. Many companies are already focused on one aspect of the Green Deal - the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). But the CSRD is far from the only European Union (EU) regulation needing immediate attention. This PwC publication details several other pressing and broadly applicable EU regulations that would also be newly applicable - or possibly already applicable - for both EU and non-EU companies.

Decisive action needed to harness digital trade and investment for inclusive sustainable development, finds new UN report
Digital trade and investment are driving forces of the modern economy, and growth in the Asia-Pacific region has exceeded the global average, with the region now accounting for a quarter of the US$ 4 trillion trade in digitally deliverable products. However, digital trade and investment remain highly uneven, according to the new Asia-Pacific Trade and Investment Report 2023/2024: Unleashing Digital Trade and Investment for Sustainable Development, produced by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). While six economies in the Asia-Pacific region are responsible for 85% of the region’s digitally deliverable exports, least developed countries (LDCs) account for less than 1%.

Expected change in Belgian CFC regime 
The CFC regime Belgium, introduced back in 2017, taxed non-distributed income arising from non-genuine arrangements which have been put in place for the essential purpose of obtaining a tax advantage (option B). Basically, this option required that the significant people functions generating the CFC income were located in Belgium. The draft law foresees a change as the focus now is on the taxation of passive income – namely interest, royalties, dividend, income from disposal of shares, but amongst others also rental income and income from invoicing companies that earn sales and services income from goods and services with adding no or little economic value –  subject to low taxation abroad (defined as half of the taxation that would occur under the Belgian rules), unless the taxpayer can prove that sufficient substance is available locally. Read more in this PwC news item.

Canada
Bill C-59 introduces EIFEL, environmental incentives, digital services tax, GAAR changes and more

Key tax measures include: 1) implementation of the excessive interest and financing expenses limitation (EIFEL) regime; 2) provision for the refundable investment tax credits (ITCs) for clean technology equipment and for carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS); 3) implementation of the Digital Services Tax Act; and 4) strengthening of the general anti-avoidance rule (GAAR). This PwC Tax Insights highlights the income tax-related and other measures included in Bill C-59.

Germany
Tax group and corporate reconstructions
In the case of a merger of a corporation into a partnership during the year, the Supreme Tax Court decided that the acquiring legal entity (as the "new" controlling company) also fulfils the requirement of financial integration as a prerequisite for a tax group (”Organschaft”) of the former controlling company, even if the conversion is not made with retroactive effect from the beginning of the financial year.

Excessive payments not tax-free as tips 
In two decisions, the Tax Court of Cologne decided that payments of EUR 50,000 and some EUR 1.3 million respectively made to authorised representatives of a GmbH do not generally qualify as tax-free tips but are rather part of the employment and subject to the personal income tax of the recipients.

Hong Kong
Bill on tax deduction for spectrum utilisation fees gazetted 
Following an announcement by the Financial Secretary in Hong Kong’s 2023/23 Budget in February 2023, the Inland Revenue (Amendment) (Tax Deductions for Spectrum Utilization Fees) Bill 2023 was gazetted on 1 December 2023.  The Bill provides for tax deductions for spectrum utilisation fees (SUF) to be paid by future assignees of radio spectrum.  The proposed deduction will resolve (on a prospective basis) this long-standing industry-wide issue and encourage mobile network operators (MNOs) to enhance their telecommunications services.  However, the deductibility of SUF derived in all past auctions will remain in dispute and we urge the Government to consider providing tax deductions for other ‘black hole’ expenditures, so long as they are incurred in producing profits chargeable to tax in Hong Kong.  Read more in this PwC Newsflash.

India
Tribunal rules on definition of PE and fees for technical services (FTS) 
The Delhi bench of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal has allowed an appeal in favour of the nonresident taxpayer, concluding that profits earned by the taxpayer by offshore sale of goods and other tangible assets should not be attributable to its Indian subsidiary. The Tribunal, while deciding on the facts of the case, observed inter alia that the non-resident taxpayer had exported goods to Indian customers on a principal-to-principal basis, effected through both delivery and receipt of payments for such sales outside India. The Tribunal was of the view that it is not sustainable to hold that the taxpayer has a permanent establishment (PE) merely based on the existence of an Indian subsidiary, without any supporting evidence to prove the existence of such PE. Based on the facts of the present case, the Tribunal concluded that the non-resident taxpayer did not have a PE in India; accordingly, profit attribution to the taxpayer on this account is liable to be deleted. The Tribunal further confirmed, based on the facts involved, that mere reimbursement of expenses, being lab-testing charges, cannot be considered as fees for technical services (FTS) in the hands of the taxpayer receiving such reimbursement from its Indian subsidiary. Read more in this PwC Tax Insights.

Tribunal denies taxability of offshore supplies and services inextricably linked with offshore supplies 
In a recent ruling, the Delhi bench of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal was of the view that no part of the consideration received outside India by a non-resident entity for offshore supplies of plant and equipment can be deemed to accrue or arise in India as per section 9 of the Income tax Act, 1961. Moreover, such consideration would only be in the nature of business profits not attributable to a permanent establishment (PE) in India; hence, it is not taxable as per the provisions of the India-Germany double tax treaty (treaty). In addition, receipts from offshore services that primarily involve offshore supply of drawings and designs, which are inextricably linked with the offshore supply of plant and equipment, do not give rise to any income accruing or arising in India; therefore, they are not taxable under the Act. Moreover, as the designs and drawings were prepared outside India, the question of bringing to tax any part of the consideration in accordance with Article 7 of the treaty cannot be sustained. Read more in this PwC Tax Insights.

Receipts from offshore supply of goods or equipment not taxable in India 
In a recent case, the Delhi bench of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal was of the view that receipts from offshore supply of goods and equipment are not taxable in India. The Tribunal observed that the supply of goods took place outside India, title over the goods was transferred outside India and payment was received outside India. The Tribunal also noted that the mere existence of an Indian subsidiary would not lead to the creation of a permanent establishment (PE). This is because no material on record substantiates that the Indian subsidiary was involved in any manner in the work of design, manufacture, testing or supply of goods from China on a cost, insurance, and freight (CIF) basis. The Tribunal also observed that a cross-fall breach clause in the onshore and offshore contracts cannot lead to these two different and distinct contracts as being composite in nature.

Proposed regulations on partnership related-party transactions reflect statutory changes
Treasury and the IRS recently released proposed regulations that address the disallowance or deferral of deductions under Sections 267 and 707 for losses and expenses in certain transactions with partnerships and related persons. The proposed rules would update the current regulations, promulgated in 1958, to reflect statutory changes since 1982 and indicated Congressional intent to treat partnerships as an entity rather than as an aggregate of its partners for purposes of applying related-party loss disallowance rules.

Tax Court limits meaning of “limited partner” for self-employment tax purposes 
In Soroban Capital Partners v. Commissioner (161 T.C. No. 12), the Tax Court recently held that determining whether a limited partner in a state law limited partnership is a limited partner for purposes of the Section 1402(a)(13) exclusion from self-employment tax for limited partners requires an inquiry into the function and roles of the limited partner. Under the decision, a limited partner who actively participates in the business of the partnership would not be able to exclude his distributive share of income or loss from net earnings from self-employment.
