TaxSentinel
Fixed-asset tax, calculated the same way every time, with the records to prove it.
TaxSentinel calculates depreciation, capital gains and GST for companies operating in the US and India. All tax math is done by tested, deterministic code, every calculation is written to a hashed audit log, and sensitive tax IDs are masked as data comes in.
All tax math is done by tested code, not by an AI model.
IRS MACRS classes and Indian block-of-assets rules.
CGST, SGST and IGST split and blocked-credit flags.
Sensitive requests need MFA before they run.
What it calculates
US depreciation
MACRS half-year convention schedules for 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20-year property, and the Section 179 deduction with its phase-out.
US capital gains
Short and long-term netting on disposals, the annual loss offset against ordinary income, and the carryforward.
India block of assets
Written-down-value pools under Section 32 of the Income Tax Act, with half-rate depreciation for assets put to use for less than 180 days, and a Section 50 capital gain when a block is fully liquidated.
GST
Interstate supplies route to IGST and intrastate to CGST + SGST; ineligible input tax credit under Section 17(5) of the CGST Act is flagged.
Validated input
Each asset record is checked for its required fields, including the state for GST, before it is calculated.
Privacy and audit
SSN, EIN, PAN and GSTIN values are masked at ingestion, and every event is written to an audit log with a SHA-256 hash per entry.
Guardrails
- The AI layer only routes requests; it never does the math.
- Requests are checked against identity and MFA rules before they run.
- Planned next: bonus depreciation, Section 174 R&D amortization, separate federal and state books, and depreciation recapture.
Status
TaxSentinel is in pilot. It supports your finance and tax teams; it does not replace your tax advisor, and tax limits and rates must be checked against current law for each tax year.
