Exit and restructuring for a Chinese parent

CA Utsav Dogra, Chartered Accountant, ICAI M. No. 542375 · Updated

In brief

A Chinese parent can exit by sale, buyback, voluntary liquidation or merger. Gains on Indian shares: India can tax under its domestic law. Where India taxes, long-term gains on unlisted shares are taxed at 12.5%. Exits involving Chinese owners may also need Government approval for the incoming buyer.

What is specific to Chinese companies

A land-border buyer also needs approval, and the Chinese parent updates its outbound filings on disposal.
