India is set to host the ICC T20 World Cup later this year irrespective of whether the BCCI manages to get tax exemption from the government or not.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) had given BCCI December 31 to confirm the status of full tax exemption. The ICC had set two conditions if the BCCI failed to get the exemptions. Either the T20 World Cup would be moved to UAE or the requisite tax would be deducted from the money owed to the BCCI by the ICC.
