This is a significant judgment which emphasises the comparability standards required for the application of the CUP method and signifies the relevance of ‘business considerations’ while determining the arm’s length price. Whereas the original judgement indicated the Tax Court’s unwillingness to look at the overall business relationship within the group, the FCA has taken a much broader view, recognising what a reasonable business person dealing at arm’s length would consider (such as the use of intangibles). The FCA’s reference to “business reality” is a breath of fresh air for taxpayers.

Mumbai Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (Mumbai ITAT) [2010-TII-154-ITAT-MUM-INTL] in a batch of cases, with the lead case being that of Reliance Industries Ltd. (Taxpayer), on the issue of whether consideration paid to a US resident (US entity) for licensing of computer software would be in the nature of ‘royalty’, either under the provisions of the Indian Tax Laws (ITL) or under the India-US Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA). The Mumbai ITAT, after considering the various clauses of the license agreement (Agreement), the Indian Copyright Act, 1957 (ICA) and other decisions, including that of the Special Bench of the Delhi ITAT (SB) in the case of Motorola Inc. 95 ITD 91 held that the payment was for the purchase of a copyrighted article and not the copyright itself. Furthermore, the Mumbai ITAT stated that the definition of ‘royalty’ under the DTAA is more restrictive than what is provided in the ITL and that it is incorrect to hold that computer software on a media continues to be an intellectual property right. Therefore, the payment made for the purchase of software cannot be termed as ‘royalty’.
