If a shipping Company opt for Tonnage taxation then its income will be taxable as per Tonnage tax scheme for 10 years. However if the company does not fullfills the conditions as prescribed under the act, any time then TTS will not be applicable to that company and the income of that company will be taxable as per normal scheme. As soon as the company become ineligible for TTS, then for the next 10 years also that company will not be able to eligible of TTS.
