On joining BMR Legal, Tarun Jain commented,

“With the advent of GST and the expected Direct Tax Code, there is a massive change in the tax ecosystem. The technological empowerment of tax administration and complexity of design oblige the taxpayers to undertake a holistic appraisal of their tax positions, keeping in mind both direct and indirect tax paradigms. 

It is, therefore, a right time to invest in a multidimensional outlook which involves legal, business and accounting interface of both direct and indirect taxes. This move is intended to bring synergies and competence to achieve these objectives.”
