# HNI Tax Planning, Succession & Family Business Advisory

> Advisory work looks across years and family members rather than a single return: how income, investments and businesses are held, how wealth passes to the next generation, and how a family business is governed. India has no inheritance or wealth tax today, but how assets are transferred still drives capital gains, stamp duty and clubbing of income.

## Who this is for

- High-income individuals and business families
- Promoters planning succession or a family constitution
- Families with assets across India and abroad

## FAQs

### Is there inheritance tax in India?

No. India abolished estate duty in 1985 and wealth tax in 2015. Inherited assets are not taxed on receipt, but the heir pays capital gains when they later sell, using the previous owner's cost and holding period.
