2. Introduction
__________________________________________
 SKS Associates is a boutique litigation and tax advisory firm which has been conceptualised specifically keeping in mind the growing needs for
dedicated professional services in Indirect Tax Laws. We at SKS Associates identified the presently severely polarised skill sets between the
litigating and consulting tax fraternity and the growing interplay of Central and State Tax laws. The underlying philosophy of SKS is therefore
to offer a highly skilled and balanced hybrid platform which should be capable of handling entire spectrum of services ranging from and
between tax litigation and consultancy along with compliance support services if so needed.
 SKS Associates was founded by Mr. Siddharth Srivastava, a practising Advocate and a member of the Institute of Company Secretaries of
India. Mr Siddharth holds enormous experience and reputation having worked with M/s Lakshmikumaran & Sridharan and M/s Ernst & Young
holding a total work experience of over 14 years exclusively in the field of indirect tax laws. Mr. Siddharth excels in providing all round
strategic indirect tax advisory services and has represented prestigious clients across all industry sectors before High Court, CESTAT and
Department adjudication authorities and his matters have been regularly reported in leading journals.
