Confucianism & Taoism(Daoism)both originated in China, & reformed the traditional Chinese religion. The founders of both religions were even acquainted with one another.

I believe that both Taoists & Hindus believe in reincarnation, so that is how those 2 religions would complement each other.

I don't know. However, I have some Hindu & eastern religions contacts whom I hope see it if you keep the ques open.

They are all ways of life that are about bringing wisdom's into your life. That's the closest I come to an answer.

I am not sure about Confucianism so i will leave that one out.

Now Hinduism real name is Sanatana Dharma (the eternal way) and Taoism can be called "The Way".

Now in both spirituality is stressed over obedience. It is more about understanding the way of things and living in harmony. Rather than be given an external set of rules that a person must conform too, the teachings are pointers to discovering our true self.
So neither has a conformist Dogma they instead encourage each individual to discover their own way.

Here is a link that may help it discusses Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism.
