Vodafone Group wins the Rs 200 billion tax case against the Indian government

The Vodafone Group has won the arbitration case against the Indian tax department in an international court over the demand of Rs 200 billion in dues. The international arbitration tribunal in The Hague ruled that the imposition of a tax liability along with interest and penalties on Vodafone by the Indian government was in violation of the investment treaty agreement between India and the Netherlands. Further, the court has also ruled that the government should pay over Rs 400 million to Vodafone as partial compensation for its legal costs.
