Press ReleasesManaging Partner, Robert Holland, alongside Partners Alex Peal and Meera Rajah, have recently returned from an excursion to meet with both new and current clients in India.
The firm has a strong pipeline in South East Asia, which is headed up by Meera, and involves many sectors of the firm. This particular trip involved visiting the sets of several upcoming full length feature films where the team were able to witness first-hand the work that goes into each project.
The Media team at James Cowper Kreston work closely with film producers to ensure all international tax liabilities are managed effectively and assist production teams to claim available film tax reliefs in the UK. The team also provide support in many other financial areas.
“We secured eight new projects during this visit,” says Meera. “And were fortunate enough to visit the sets of a few of the projects we are currently working on. Alex and I were given the opportunity to meet Salman Khan, who is one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema today, along with his co-stars. Being on set allows us to gain a first-hand look at the films on which we are working and means we can speak to our clients face to face, allowing for better communication.”
“It’s always fascinating to visit the set of projects,” says Alex. “The amount of work that goes into making a production of this magnitude is astonishing and we are very proud to be a part of it. Working with international clients allows us to gain a better understanding of the country’s tax and VAT legislation which in turn helps us to provide a better service in the long run.”
