The much anticipated India Briefing magazine and website was launched�yesterday in Delhi by the consulting practice Dezan Shira & Associates. The firm, which has� published the well known sister publication China Briefing and a variety of books over the past eight years in China, has recently opened three India offices and is positioning itself as a Foreign Direct Investment boutique legal / tax practice specializing in China and India investments on behalf of international businesses, mainly in the manufacturing sector.

Chris Devonshire-Ellis, the firm’s founder and senior partner, commented �The launch of our new Indian business series demonstrates our commitment to the development of foreign direct investment into India and represents a significant investment by our practice in the future of India. Like China Briefing has for China, we hope that India Briefing will assist with educating the international business community concerning the legal and tax environment in India and will help facilitate trade into the country.�

India Briefing is a monthly magazine, and can be subscribed to on a complimentary basis. With an international readership, subscribers are sent the pdf full color link each month directly to their mailbox. Subscribers also receive access to all archived back issues as well as invitations to specific business events and book offers and discounts.

�We�ve found this works well� says Devonshire-Ellis. �It shows the global business community the strength of Dezan Shira & Associates as a practice, and demonstrates our professional legal and tax knowledge in a manner which is also educational. We�re not in a position of the global firms and Big Four and be fed business from corporate offices overseas, so we have to show our abilities via marketing and education. Both India Briefing & China Briefing are designed to do just that.�

India Briefing’s first issue deals with expatriate individual income tax in India and can be accessed here.
