“There are misconceptions surrounding the concept of amalgamation especially in relation to taxation. The legal aspects of amalgamation are vital to understand and analyze the tax implications. There are many relevant case laws in foreign jurisdictions that could be applied in Sri Lanka. We wish to discuss the applications of those case laws in Sri Lanka also in addition to other pertinent areas. We are delighted to have Dr K Kanag Isvaran P.C joining the KPMG virtual assembly to dissect the legal aspects of amalgamation” said Suresh R. I. Perera, Principal – Tax & Regulatory.
