Commercial's Concise Commentary on Income Tax including International Taxation – 27th Edition, Tax Year 2026-2027 (Set of 2 Volumes)
Commercial Law Publishers (India) Pvt. Ltd. publishes the 27th Edition of Concise Commentary on Income Tax including International Taxation, with Tax Planning / Problems & Solutions, by CA (Dr.) Girish Ahuja and CA (Adv.) Rahul Agrawal — a hardbound two-volume set for Tax Year 2026-2027, written as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 2025, as amended by the Finance Act, 2026.
This edition matters more than a usual annual revision. The Income Tax Act, 2025 replaced the Income-tax Act, 1961 with effect from 1 April 2026, substituting 536 sections and 16 Schedules for the eight hundred-odd sections of the old law. Girish Ahuja's commentary has been the standard working companion for a generation of chartered accountants and tax practitioners; this is that commentary rewritten to the new statute.
What the set contains
- Lucid commentary on the whole of income tax law, written in the plain, worked-through style the book is known for, with illustrations and examples rather than bare exposition.
- International taxation — residence and scope of total income, income deemed to accrue or arise in India, business connection and significant economic presence, royalty and fees for technical services, double taxation relief and the DTAAs, and transfer pricing.
- Tax planning — the legitimate planning opportunities under each head, treated alongside the provision rather than in a separate section.
- Problems and solutions — worked computational problems with full solutions, which is what makes the book usable for both practice and examination.
- As amended by the Finance Act, 2026, for Tax Year 2026-2027.
- Free e-book — access details inside the print set.
