Naina Bhardwaj Addresses 200+ Lawyers at Workshop on AI Applications in Taxation Hosted by a Lawyers’ Association in Uttar Pradesh, India

On March 22nd, 2024, Naina Bhardwaj, International Business Advisor at Dezan Shira & Associates’ India office, took the stage as a guest speaker, offering her insights on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in taxation. This interaction took place at a taxation workshop hosted by the Ghaziabad Bar Association, a leading organization representing legal professionals in the Ghaziabad district of Uttar Pradesh, India.

Estimated to be worth over US$17 billion by 2027, India’s AI market is positioned to propel the country as a global technological and economic leader. With recent government initiatives like the Digital India programme, India is actively integrating AI in key areas such as taxation to streamline its evolving yet complex tax laws and create a conducive business environment for global investors.

At this interactive taxation workshop organized by the Ghaziabad Bar Association, a leading organization representing legal professionals in the Ghaziabad district of Uttar Pradesh, India, Naina delivered a comprehensive presentation on the significance of integrating AI in taxation services and support. Naina’s insights provided tax and legal professionals with a thorough understanding of the benefits and implications of AI adoption.

Throughout her discussion, she highlighted the emerging AI terms and their importance, including the role of Generative AI in aiding professionals not only to process data but also to draft complex documents and legal briefs. She also shared recent strategic initiatives by the government to integrate AI in its tax framework, including projects such as Advanced Analytics in Indirect Taxes that look to minimize the risk of tax fraud by early identification of tax evasion among other benefits.

Naina presented a blueprint for integrating AI into various professions, focusing on organizational readiness for future challenges and adopting a systematic approach for achieving quantifiable enhancements in speed, efficiency, and overall outcomes.

She also spoke of the utility of AI, particularly Generative AI, within the realm of tax functions, elaborating on its potential applications in evolving domains such as mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and transfer pricing. Additionally, she shed light on popular AI tools widely adopted by tax professionals worldwide.
