About Hyderabad City:

Hyderabad historically was known as a pearl and diamond trading centre, and it continues to be known as the “City of Pearls”.

Occupying 650 square kilometres (250 sq. miles) along the banks of the Musi River, much of Hyderabad is situated on hilly terrain around artificial lakes, including Hussain Sagar— predating the city’s founding—north of the city centre.

Established in 1591 by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, Hyderabad remained under the rule of the Qutb Shahi dynasty for nearly a century before the Mughals captured the region. In 1724, Mughal viceroy Asif Jah I declared his sovereignty and created his own dynasty, known as the Nizams of Hyderabad.

Relics of Qutb Shahi and Nizam rule remain visible today; the Charminar commissioned by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah has come to symbolise Hyderabad. Golconda Fort is another major landmark. The influence of Mughlai culture is also evident in the region’s distinctive cuisine, which includes Hyderabadi biryani and Hyderabadi haleem. The Telugu film industry based in the city is the country’s second-largest producer of motion pictures. Ramoji film city is world’s largest integrated film city and India’s only thematic holiday destination with magic of cinema.

Distinguished features of this RRC:

• With advent of GST, RRC is now scheduled for 3 nights/4 days instead of 2 nights/3 days, to provide more learning with relaxed schedule and enough time for participants to enjoy the venue and places around. The relaxed schedule also helps in networking with professional brothers coming from various parts of the country.

• There will be 3 case study papers and 1 technical presentation paper covering the substantive and conceptual aspects of GST.

There will be longer duration for intensive group discussion. Faculties will be given more time to cover the case studies in greater depth.

• There will be one non-technical panel discussion, wherein eminent professionals will share their views on the Future and Challenges in GST Practice. This will surely be an icing on the cake.
