Investment opportunities between India and Europe are expanding in both directions.

India's Income Tax Act, 2025 represents a significant step towards simplifying the country's legal and tax framework for foreign investors. At the same time, the strengthening economic relationship between India, Cyprus and the European Union is creating new opportunities for businesses seeking to establish and expand their presence across these markets.

Following the seminar organised by the High Commission of India in Cyprus in collaboration with the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Raphael Legal has published a new article examining the practical implications of these developments for European businesses considering entry into the Indian market. The article also explores Cyprus' increasingly important role as a strategic gateway for Indian businesses expanding into the European Union.

Our analysis explores:
• What India's Income Tax Act, 2025 means for foreign investors
• Transfer pricing planning and investment certainty
• GIFT City as an international investment platform
• Cyprus' growing role in the India–EU investment corridor
