Nokia paid 202 million euro to settle a long running dispute with the tax authorities in India

« | »

Under the Mutual Agreement Procedure (MAP), Finland and India have settled a long running tax dispute involving Nokia.

The tax authorities in India issued a tax assessment to Nokia for violating withholding tax regulations in India while making royalty payments to its parent company in Finland. An additional assessment was then issued by the tax authorities in India to the parent company in Finland for the same transaction as – according to the tax authorities – the company had a permanent establishment in India.

According to the MAP settlement Nokia will pay 102 million euro in addition to the 100 million euro already paid in India during 2013-2015.
