Firm overview
SBC is a Hyderabad-headquartered transfer pricing and international tax firm, ranked Tier 2 for Transfer Pricing in India by ITR World Tax 2026, that takes clients from transfer pricing policy through to ITAT litigation — with teams in India, the UAE and the USA and its own AI-based documentation technology.

Steadfast Business Consulting LLP (SBC) was founded in 2017 and has grown to more than 270 professionals serving 350+ clients, including multinational groups, private equity-backed companies and Indian conglomerates. Group entities in Dubai, UAE (SBC Tax Consulting LLC) and Delaware, USA (Steadfast Business Consulting LLC) let SBC document and defend both sides of an intercompany transaction. SBC is a member of Kreston Global.
Transfer pricing is the firm’s founding practice. The team, led by Big 4 alumni, works across the full lifecycle — policy design and benchmarking, proceedings before the Transfer Pricing Officer (TPO) and Dispute Resolution Panel (DRP), litigation support before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT), Advance Pricing Agreements (APA) and Mutual Agreement Procedures (MAP). SBC’s leadership has represented more than 50 appeals before the Hyderabad ITAT and over 100 CIT(A) and DRP matters.
With the Income-tax Act, 2025 in force from 1 April 2026, SBC is moving clients’ transfer pricing documentation, forms and positions to the new law, while the final assessment cycles under the Income-tax Act, 1961 run their course.
