Aditya Birla Capital Faces ₹194.54 Cr Tax Demand Post-Amalgamation
Aditya Birla Capital received a ₹194.54 crore tax demand from CPC, Income Tax Dept. for AY 2025-26. This is due to technical issues with tax credit migration post-amalgamation of ABFL. The company expects no material financial impact and will seek rectification.
The company has stated that it does not foresee any material impact on its financial or operational activities due to this tax demand, as it is attributed to technical reasons and rectification is expected.
The company received a tax demand due to technical reasons related to a prior amalgamation. While a demand has been raised, the company believes it's a technical issue, does not represent short payment, and plans to seek rectification, indicating no expected material financial impact.
Aditya Birla Capital Limited (ABCAPITAL) has received an intimation under Section 143(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, dated 15 May 2026, from the Centralised Processing Centre (CPC) for Assessment Year 2025-26 (Financial Year 2024-25). This intimation arises from the amalgamation of Aditya Birla Finance Limited (ABFL) with ABCAPITAL, effective from 01 April 2025, with an appointed date of 1 April 2024.
Following the amalgamation, ABCAPITAL filed a consolidated return of income for FY 2024-25 on 10 December 2025 (revised on 31 December 2025), offering the combined income of both entities. The company also claimed credit for ₹222 crore in advance tax paid by ABFL and ₹816 crores in TDS deposited under ABFL's PAN. The CPC notice indicates that the advance tax credits related to ABFL have not been granted, resulting in an income-tax demand of ₹194.54 crore.
The company clarifies that this demand is due to technical reasons concerning the non-migration of tax credits from ABFL's PAN to ABCAPITAL's PAN post-amalgamation, despite the income being offered to tax. ABCAPITAL asserts that this does not represent any short payment of tax and an application for rectification will be filed with the Income-tax Department for appropriate credit of taxes already paid. The company does not foresee any material impact on its financial or operational activities.
