Dear Sameer,
Taxability will depend upon Residential Status
A company is said to be resident in India in any previous year, if—
(i) it is an Indian company ; or
(ii) during that year, the control and management of its affairs is situated wholly in India.
If the Subsidary is resident company thenit's global income will be taxable..
If the subsidary company is non resident(or what is called as "Foreign Company") then Profits of subsidary will not be taxable in India as such except -
1) Sec 5 explains the taxability of Incomes of Non residents as under
(a) received or is deemed to be received in India in such year by or on behalf of such person ; or
(b) accrues or arises or is deemed to accrue or arise to him in India during such year.
2) Apart from this if subsidary company pays dividend to it's Indian parent, then that dividend will be taxable in the hands of Parent Company..
