On 8th October 2021, one hundred and thirty-six member jurisdictions of the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework (IF) on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS)representing more than 90 per cent of global GDP, approved and finalized several key aspects of a framework for reforming the international tax system. This list included countries like the United States, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom apart from the other 130 members for reaching political agreement on the Statement of a Two-Pillar solution to address the tax challenges arising from the digitalisation of the economy.
