Another round of uncomfortable revelations are washing ashore with the emergence of the Paradise Papers from the US-based International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).
The findings have emerged as part of the Paradise Papers, where 382 reporters from 96 media houses analyzed more than 13.4 million tax haven documents covering the period 1950-2016.
The list ranks India at 19 among 180 world countries where corporations maneuvered laws and policies to legally and illegally park their wealth away from the national taxation systems. However, a disclaimer by ICIJ says all off-shore investments need not be illegal.

Names of the mighty rulers of the world and flamboyant multi-billionaires have figured on the list on the first day of release.
Reports say that 714 Indians figure on the tally.
In the first 'night of revelations', Indian express, has listed out the name of MoS civil aviation and BJP leader Jayant Sinha.
Sinha has come out with an explanation on his role in parking huge cache of money abroad, reasoning that the act was not in personal capacity but as a part of his official association with the companies 'he is no more connected with.'
According to a series of tweets, he 'was connected' with Omidyar Network, a company that describes itself as an 'impact investor' and financial and human capital solutions provider and D. Light, a solar power solutions company, for whom he made the investments.
Offshore finance is about a place outside of one's own nation's regulations to which companies or individuals can reroute money, assets or profits to take advantage of lower taxes, reported the BBC.
The documents from 19 jurisdictions on the worldwide list of tax havens were leaked from the Appleby and Asiatici Trust Law Firms based at Bermuda and Singapore respectively.
Sun Group, an Indian company, founded by Nand Lal Khemka, figures as Appleby’s second-largest client internationally, and has as many as 118 different offshore entities.
The Indian connection of the list includes firms involved in the Sun-TV-Aircel-Maxis case; Essar-Loop 2G case and SNC-Lavalin case.
