Exchange of information under bilateral tax treaties was interpreted to require applicability to information relating to fiscal years beginning after the protocol's specified date, so the IndiaSwiss Article 26 applies only to fiscal years commencing after 01.04.2011 and the IndiaHong Kong Protocol clause 5(c) permits information only for fiscal years or taxable events after 30.11.2018 (effectively FY 2019-20/AY 2020-21).
