MAURITIUS OPPOSE DIRECT TAX CODE AS AGAINST INTERNATIONAL LAW

Mauritius vice prime minister and finance minister Ramakrishna Sithanen has strongly supported the
Double Taxation Avoidance Treaty (DTAA) it has with India. According to him, it is not a one-off
treaty between the two countries but that both the countries have such treaties with many other
countries and it is unfair to single out Mauritius and any unilateral move to change the terms of
the treaty would be in violation of international laws. He further said that the proposed direct tax
code of India which proposes treaty over-riding is also a unilateral move and against international
laws.
