"The name is Sherlock Holmes and the address is 221b Baker Street."
The world's favourite consulting detective has emerged from the fog. He is edgy, contemporary, stubborn, difficult and dangerous. Yet, he has successfully mesmerised his audience with slow motion fist fights and savant-like ability to see what is invisible to the common man. And, with over 200 movies and a universally acclaimed series starring Oscar-nominated Benedict Cumberbatch, Holmes has been raking in the big bucks for the production houses.
Holmes' daredevilry is an outcome characterized by uncertainty. Fast forward to the 21st century, the business ecosystem can be more bewildering than the rooftop plunge from season 2 of Sherlock Holmes. Combine that with reporting VAT and reclaiming it from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs(HMRC) can be daunting.
