Truecaller statement with regards to Indian Tax authorities visiting Truecaller India offices

On Thursday 7 November 2024, Truecaller’s India offices were visited by Indian Tax officials. Truecaller are currently assisting the authorities to the full extent at our offices. This came without prior notice and Truecaller are currently awaiting official confirmation and communication from the tax departments. This is not an uncommon practice and Truecaller will cooperate fully with the relevant authorities.

With regards to taxation, as a publicly-listed company, our practices are entirely transparent.

Truecaller would like to reiterate that Truecaller is not subject to any tax investigation in India outside the routine tax audits. Truecaller’s group financial statements have always received an unqualified audit opinion. Truecaller has always paid all taxes due in India and all regions where it operates.

As has been previously communicated, Truecaller’s transfer pricing policy for its intra-group transactions is consistent with the internationally accepted arm’s length standard. The purpose is to ensure that Truecaller pays tax in a way that is correct from the perspective of both the Swedish and the Indian tax authorities. The policy is continuously independently reviewed to ensure that it meets the tax law requirements of both countries.
