Hiring: Senior Associate — Direct Tax (Litigation, Advisory & Transactions) | Mumbai

If you’re ready to own matters end-to-end—from litigation strategy to deal-side tax—GBCA & Associates LLP is your next move.

What you’ll own
• Lead scrutiny/re-assessment files; frame grounds, evidence strategy, and timelines.
• Draft appeals/submissions for CIT(A)/ ITAT / HC ; brief and coordinate with counsel.
• Transaction Advisory & Group Planning: buy/sell-side tax diligence, structuring memos (merger/demerger/slump sale), holding-company structures, ESOP/exit waterfalls, group tax efficiency reviews and clearances.
• Search/Survey follow-ups, statements, and paper-books; manage 5–7 juniors and client calls.
• IBC-linked tax litigation: preserve carry-forward/UD post-resolution, ensure correct MAT, and close legacy dues—covering issue mapping, plan paperbook & hearings, revised MAT, rectifications, and appellate briefs.
• Advisory on TDS/TCS, 194R/206AA, cross-border issues; review complex opinions.

Why GBCA (real levers for growth)
• Courtroom + Deal table: appellate exposure and live transaction work—no silos.
• Partner mentorship with rapid feedback loops.
• Sector breadth: chemicals, real estate/redevelopment, manufacturing, services.
• Merit path: accelerated track to Asst. Manager/Manager based on impact.
• Thought leadership: write, present, and represent GBCA at forums—your name on the work.
• Values you can trust: ethics, ownership, open culture; single-digit attrition.

What will set you apart
• 2–5+ years in Direct Tax with hands-on assessments/appellate drafting, plus exposure to transactions/group planning (even if partial modules).
• Crisp, structured writing; comfort with data and faceless proceedings.
• Bias for action, client empathy, and the courage to challenge weak arguments.

90-Day outcomes we expect
• Independently run 4–6 active matters; close at least 5 appeal submission.
• Deliver one transaction deliverable (diligence module or structuring note).
• Publish 3 internal research/training note; become “preferred lead” for a key account.

Not for you if you prefer narrow silos or avoid ownership. Perfect for you if you want impact, visibility, and a voice at the table.
