General Anti Avoidance Rules For Major Developing Countries

This book describes anti-avoidance issues in three major developing nations (India, Brazil, and South Africa) and analyses all relevant case law pertaining to relatively successful general anti-avoidance rules (GAARs) in such developed jurisdictions as the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Hong Kong, France and Spain. It is based on analysis of more than 100 cases and over 500 legal references, as well as statutory legislation and administrative guidelines. The book shows why developing countries need their own tailor-made anti-avoidance systems, and it describes the features of GAARs relevant to developing countries, including the fastest routes, the paths that require caution and the directions to avoid.
