New Delhi, 18 July 2025 – Taxmann, India’s premier legal content authority with over six decades of trusted service, today announced the launch of Taxmann.AI, in collaboration with EY India. Taxmann.AI is an advanced AI-powered platform designed for tax and legal professionals, offering research, document analysis, and response generation capabilities built on EY’s cutting-edge technology platform for the Tax domain.

1. Reliable, Verifiable AI Tailored for Tax and Legal Professionals

Responses generated by Taxmann.AI are grounded in original, verifiable content from India’s largest tax and legal library, owned and maintained by Taxmann. EY’s experience in Tax consulting and technology makes the solution robust, reliable, and user-friendly. EY India has engineered the platform from the ground up, keeping India’s unique tax landscape in mind.  This positions Taxmann.AI as a differentiated offering in the Indian Tax AI space based on more than six decades of authentic and reliable data, providing superior reliability compared to generic large language models (LLMs) and chatbots.

“This launch represents our commitment to empowering Tax and legal professionals with tools that enhance both efficiency and accuracy,” said Rakesh Bhargava, Managing Director, Taxmann. “By combining our decades of Tax and legal content expertise with the proven AI technology of EY, we’re delivering a solution that truly understands the requirements of Indian Tax and legal professions.”

Sameer Gupta, National Tax Leader, EY India, said, “India’s tax ecosystem has undergone a remarkable digital transformation, setting global benchmarks in technology-led governance, EY is a trusted leader in tax technology in India. With AI driving the next wave of Tax transformation, our collaboration with Taxmann reflects a shared vision to empower Tax and legal professionals with AI for greater speed, efficiency and smarter decision-making based on authentic data.” EY India’s Tax Technology practice supports over 3,300 corporates, processing transactions worth more than US$600 billion annually.

2. Launch Phase – Addressing Workflow Challenges With AI-Powered Research

In the launch phase, Taxmann.AI features an intelligent ‘Ask Bot’ that processes natural language queries and delivers structured, reliable, source-backed responses with links to relevant sections, rules, circulars, case law, and expert commentaries. Tax professionals can now access authoritative guidance in seconds, rather than spending hours on manual research. The platform can also research complex topics, extract insights from intricate legal documents, identify similar legal precedents using sophisticated pattern recognition, and seamlessly integrate with Microsoft Word.

3. Next Phase – AI-Powered Draft Bot

Taxmann.AI will soon expand with a ‘Draft Bot’ designed to validate legal notices received from tax authorities, identify potential issues, and generate comprehensive draft responses supported by statutory provisions and relevant case law.

4. Built With Enterprise-Grade Privacy and Security

Taxmann.AI has been designed with a privacy-first architecture. It ensures complete confidentiality of user data and generated content through enterprise-grade encryption protocols, meeting the stringent security standards.

5. A Strategic Collaboration for the Future of Tax Technology

This collaboration brings together Taxmann’s six-decade legacy as India’s most trusted legal content authority and EY India’s excellence in delivering enterprise-grade Tax technology solutions across industries. The partnership ensures the platform meets the standards of India’s legal and tax professionals while incorporating world-class technology capabilities.
