The depth of Taxmann's tax and corporate law library is undeniable and the books are authoritative. My frustration is purely with the online platform's search, which often returns loosely relevant results and makes pinpointing a specific circular harder than it should be. The content is five stars; the search experience pulls it down.
Authoritative, comprehensive content
Online search returns imprecise results
Taxmann's database is the first place I go for any income tax or GST question. The case law is updated almost immediately after judgments and the editorial commentary genuinely clarifies grey areas. As a practising CA I cannot imagine working without it.
Always current, excellent editorial commentary
I rely on Taxmann's printed editions and online portal for corporate law research and the quality is consistently high. The annual finance act publications are particularly well done. My only complaint is that a couple of book deliveries arrived later than promised, but the content made up for it.
High-quality, trusted publications
Occasional late book deliveries
Taxmann's combination of books, journals and the online research database is unmatched in India. The weekly updates keep me ahead of amendments and the cross-referencing between sections, rules and case law saves enormous time. Worth every rupee for any serious tax professional.
Unmatched breadth, brilliant cross-referencing
Our firm subscribes to Taxmann for its consolidated bare acts and commentary, and the accuracy is dependable. The annual renewal cost has crept up over the years, which stings for a small office. Still, the time it saves on research mostly justifies keeping it.
Accurate, consolidated reference material
Subscription cost has risen over time
