DAKSH Podcast | Certainty and Timeliness in Tax Matters | Ft. P. V. Srinivasan and Pavan Kumar

This podcast brings you a unique and insightful conversation that explores two sides of India’s tax system. Joining us are two distinguished voices from across the tax table:

• Mr. P V Srinivasan, with decades of experience navigating India’s tax landscape, from his time at the Wipro Group to his work today as an independent practitioner, sharing the taxpayer’s perspective.
• Mr. Pavan Kumar, a retired senior IRS officer, and currently a practicing advocate, offering deep insights from within the tax administration.

At the heart of this conversation are two fundamental promises every tax system must deliver – certainty and timeliness.

When these promises fall short, the impact goes far beyond individual taxpayers, affecting trust, efficiency, and the broader economy. Drawing from DAKSH’s work on institutional reform, this episode examines whether India’s tax system meets these expectations and what can be done to strengthen it. Tune in for a thoughtful discussion!
