Income Tax and GST Case Law Search, Cited to the Source. With 4 more practice areas

GST case law search and income tax case law research in one place. Ask the question the way you would put it to a colleague, and AskSolique reasons across the bare Act, the rules, notifications, CBIC circulars and Indian judicial precedent - then returns the answer with the passage it relied on attached, rather than a citation you still have to go and look up.

What the case law database covers

For income tax: Supreme Court, High Court, ITAT and Advance Ruling decisions, read together with the Income-tax Act 1961 and the Income Tax Act 2025, the rules and departmental circulars. For GST: Supreme Court, High Court, AAAR and AAR decisions, read with the CGST and SGST Acts, the rules, notifications and CBIC circulars. The corpus is maintained as new rulings and circulars are issued, so the position you get is the one currently applied, not the one that applied when the page was written.

Searching by issue instead of by citation

A traditional database needs you to know the case name or the section before you can start, which assumes you already know where the answer lives. Here you describe the position - 'ITC reversed because the supplier did not file, is the recipient liable' - and the reasoning runs across statute and precedent to return the governing authority. That is the difference between a search box and research.

Collaboration · Team & credits

Work together on a matter, without watching over shoulders.

Invite team members, share a thread, and pick up a colleague's research where they left it. Every change is tracked - who edited what, and when - and saved back to the shared thread for the whole team to use. You don't see the content of what someone else is researching; you allocate credits to each person as you see fit and track how much they've used against how much is left.

The workflow

Create, edit, share, review, sign off, move to the Knowledge Base.

One thread, start to finish - no switching tools between the question and the deliverable.

Step 1 · Choose your depth

Two ways to ask - a quick read, or the whole file.

Not every question needs a full opinion. Pick the mode that fits the moment.

Deep Research

The whole file, reasoned end to end

An in-depth answer with the full reasoning, every verbatim source, the governing circulars and the judgements that turn on the point - the version you build an opinion from.

  • Full reasoning
  • Verbatim sources
  • Judgements
Concise

The executive summary, in seconds

A tight, direct answer for a quick check - the position and its key citation, so you get an on-the-spot update without reading the whole thing. Go deeper any time with one click.

  • Quick answer
  • Key citation
  • One-click deepen

Step 2 · Pick the module(s)

Select the modules - or reason across all of them.

Scope the answer to the areas that matter, or turn them all on for a cross-domain matter. Either way you get the verbatim text, the citation and the judgement behind every point - not a paraphrase.

  • All modules
  • GST
  • Income Tax
  • FEMA
  • Corporate Law
  • SEBI
  • Customs
Income Tax covers
  • Domestic Tax
  • International Tax
  • Transfer Pricing

Step 3 · Hit Go - it auto-enhances your question

You ask plainly. It asks precisely.

Type the question the way it came to you - no legal phrasing, no keywords. AskSolique automatically rewrites it into a precise, well-scoped legal query behind the scenes. Better prompts get better answers, and doing that step for you has been one of the biggest wins our users report.

You type

"Indian Co. has advanced interest-bearing loans to its wholly owned foreign subsidiary over several years. The subsidiary has suffered losses and repayment is doubtful. Indian Co. now proposes to: Waive part of the loan or Convert the balance into equity"

Auto-enhanced

AskSolique reasons on

"Analyse the Indian tax, GST, corporate-law and FEMA consequences where an Indian company has advanced interest-bearing loans over several years to its wholly owned foreign subsidiary, the subsidiary has suffered losses and repayment is doubtful, and the Indian company proposes either to waive part of the loan or to convert the balance into equity. Compare the legal and tax treatment of the waiver and debt-to-equity conversion, including deductibility or loss recognition, write-off and bad-debt principles, transfer-pricing and arm's-length considerations, foreign-exchange valuation and reporting, compliance under the FEMA, 1999 and the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Rules, 2019, Companies Act, 2013 approvals and accounting/corporate-record requirements, and any GST implications for the interest-bearing loan, waiver or conversion. Consider relevant statutory provisions, rules, RBI requirements, CBIC guidance and judicial interpretation under the Income-tax Act, 2025"

Step 5-6 · Edit, share, track every change

Save it, share it, and stop starting from scratch.

Every answer becomes a thread you can name, save and reuse. Threads are how your firm builds its own knowledge base of settled tax positions - so the next matter starts from the last one, not a blank page.

Rename & save threads

Give a thread a clear name and keep it - your growing library of firm positions, searchable when the question comes back.

Share for review

A junior researches and shares the thread to a manager or partner for review - the daily research-to-sign-off workflow, in one place.

See who changed what, when

Full version history on every thread - each edit attributed and timestamped, so review is transparent and nothing is lost.

Push to the latest version

Promote the reviewed answer to the current version, so the whole team works from one agreed, up-to-date position.

Step 7 · Finish it, on your letterhead

Edit, brand, and download - ready to send.

Refine the answer inline, then export it as a polished PDF or Word document. Upload your firm's logo and set the typeface to your brand standard, so what leaves AskSolique already looks like your firm's work.

  1. 01

    Edit inline

    Adjust wording and structure directly on the response before it goes out.

  2. 02

    Your brand, applied

    Upload your logo and set the font to your firm's standard - every export, on-brand.

  3. 03

    Download PDF or Word

    Export a client-ready document in the format your workflow needs.

Template Library

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from running the same question through a general AI tool?

A general tool answers from what it has absorbed. The Research Centre reasons over the maintained Indian corpus and returns the position with the provision behind it, the judgements it relies on and the verbatim source text - so you can check the reasoning rather than trust it.

How do I search GST case law by issue rather than by citation?

Ask the question the way the issue actually arises - a classification dispute, a blocked-credit denial, a valuation adjustment - and the Research Centre reasons across the GST case law and returns the judgements that turn on that point, each shown with the verbatim passage relied on.

What does the income tax case law database cover?

Reported income tax judgements alongside the bare Act, rules, notifications, circulars and commentary, with the 1961 and 2025 Acts held side by side, so a provision and the case law reading it can be checked together rather than in two separate searches.

Do I have to phrase my question in a particular way?

No. Ask the way you would ask a senior associate - a one-line question, a multi-part query, or a full fact pattern with figures and dates. Longer, messier questions usually produce sharper answers, because the facts are what the reasoning turns on.

Can it handle a question that crosses more than one law?

Yes. Cross-domain reasoning is the point. A single transaction that touches income tax, FEMA and corporate law is answered as one problem, not three separate searches you then have to reconcile yourself.

Can my team work on the same matter together?

Yes. Invite team members, share a thread and pick up a colleague's research where they left it. Every change is tracked - who edited what, and when - and saved back to the shared thread for the whole team.

How do credits work across a team?

You allocate credits to each person as you see fit and track what they have used against what is left. You see the allocation and consumption, not the content of what a colleague is researching. Browsing the Data Centre still costs nothing.

Research you can sign your name to.
