Meaning of International Transaction : Clause 163 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025 Vs. Section 92B of the Income-tax Act, 1961

International transaction scope expanded broadens transfer pricing coverage to intangibles and indirect dealings, including restructuring and financing arrangements.

Clause 163 defines international transaction expansively to include tangible and intangible property (expressly including transfer), capital financing, services, business restructuring, cost sharing and any transaction affecting profits, income, losses or assets; it reproduces an illustrative list of intangibles and contains a deeming rule treating dealings with third parties as international transactions where terms are determined with or pursuant to an associated enterprise, thereby widening transfer pricing coverage and anti avoidance reach.
