In the current financial year, a total of 44 APAs (7 Bilateral and 37 Unilateral) have been signed till date.

The 2 Bilateral Agreements signed in the month of January, 2018, inter alia, include the first BAPA signed with USA. The 7 APAs entered into during January, 2018 pertain to various sectors of the economy like Banking, Insurance, Investment Advisory, Information Technology, Chemicals and Engineering. The international transactions covered in these agreements include provision of IT enabled services, provision of software development services, contract manufacturing, payment of royalty, sale of goods, etc.
