In order to increase regions income, to encourage the conditions to compete for Russian companies on national and world markets, to develop socio-economic sphere of the country, the concept of a consolidated group of taxpayers was introduced with Russian Federal Law of November 16, 2011 N 321-FZ "On Amendments to Parts One and Two of Russian Federation Tax due to creation of Consolidated Group of Taxpayers". This law is to simplify the payment of income taxes by large taxpayers.
