DCM Shriram faces ₹35.83 Crore Tax Litigation Appeal at Delhi High Court
DCM Shriram Limited received a notice on June 19, 2026, regarding a tax litigation for AY 2016-17. The Principal Commissioner of Income Tax has appealed an ITAT order favoring the company, with the appeal involving a tax effect of ₹35.83 crore. The matter is now before the Delhi High Court.
The litigation involves a significant amount of ₹35.83 crore, which could impact the company's financials if the appeal is decided against them. However, the company has a precedent of favorable rulings on similar issues.
The company is facing a tax litigation appeal, which introduces uncertainty. However, a previous favorable ruling on a similar issue and the fact that the matter is still under judicial review temper a negative sentiment.
DCM Shriram Limited has disclosed a material tax litigation concerning Assessment Year 2016-17 (Financial Year 2015-16). The dispute involves transfer pricing adjustments for specified domestic transactions.
Previously, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT), Delhi, ruled in favor of the company on June 30, 2025. However, the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax 1, New Delhi, has filed an appeal before the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi against the ITAT's order. This appeal pertains to certain issues and involves a tax effect of ₹35.83 crore.
The company notes that a similar issue was previously decided in its favor by the Delhi High Court for Assessment Year 2014-15 (Financial Year 2013-14). The matter is currently listed for hearing at the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi.
