Tax planning is the analysis of a financial situation or plan from a tax perspective. The
purpose of tax planning is to ensure tax efficiency. Through tax planning, all elements of the
financial plan work together in the most tax-efficient manner possible. Tax planning is an
essential part of a financial plan. Reduction of tax liability and maximizing the ability to
contribute to retirement plans are crucial for success. Degree to which a taxpayer complies (or
fails to comply) with the tax rules of his country, for example by declaring income, filing a
return, and paying the tax due in a timely manner is tax compliance. Any company registered
under the Companies act has to follow a number of compliances as laid down under various
statutes and legislations of the State/ Central government.
