ABSTRACT
In order to encourage and safeguard foreign private investments in each other's borders, two nations enter into bilateral investment treaties (BITs). By encouraging foreign investors to invest in a State, BITs help the economy grow and thrive on the whole. When India inked its first BIT with the United Kingdom in 1994, it began its relationship with them. After that, it signed BITs with more than 80 nations. When analysing the investment climate and protection mechanisms that India provides its numerous trading partners, BITs are a helpful place to start when elucidating legal and tax procedures under bilaterally agreed-upon circumstances. However, introduction of BITs has brought about fair share of uncertainty with itself and we are going to analyse the same in this paper.
