15 May 2013 'B' is a large Indian Company. B has now decided to expand into the business of providing software development services to US and European clients. B therefore intends to acquire "C",an existing Indian software development co. B is willing to acquire 'C' through (i) a purchase of share of 'C' from its promoters, or (ii) merger of 'C' with 'B', or (iii) sale of all 'C's assets, plant and machinery to 'B'. Could you please advise 'B', from a tax perspective, which of the above three routes it should take to acquire 'C'.

15 May 2013 it would be better to go with (ii) then (i) & (iii) (with a view point from Taxation)

going with (i) or (ii) is good
but(iii) is anyways not good.
