In addition to it the AIFTP is publishing the journals and the books for the benefit of the Professionals. In the Journal the AIFTP is covering the latest issues and controversies and the amendments. The judgments are also discussed and digest of the judgments is also given in the journals. The journals cover the Direct and Indirect Taxes separately apart from the allied laws.
It is important for a Federation that its website is interactive and provides all the information’s required.
