The Delhi bench of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal [“The Tribunal”] recently pronounced its ruling in the case of Clear Plus India Private Limited v. DCIT [ITA NO. 3944/DEL/2010], wherein it upheld the transfer pricing methodology adopted by the taxpayer to benchmark its export sale by the application of internal comparable uncontrolled price [“CUP”] method, adopting its associated enterprise [“AE”] as the tested party. The revenue’s contention to use Transactional Net Margin Method [“TNMM”] was rejected as in view of the Tribunal minor aberrations in the application of CUP method do not warrant its abandonment.

Transfer Pricing – ACIT vs. M/s. NGC Network (India) Pvt. Ltd.

March 30, 2011 8013 Views 0 comment Print

The Mumbai Bench ‘L’ of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (the “Tribunal”), on 23 February 2011, pronounced its ruling in the case ACIT vs. M/s. NGC Network (India) Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai, ITA No. 5307/M/2008. The Taxpayer’s position under appeal filed by the Department with the Tribunal related to the use of independent comparables under TNMM for justifying the arm’s length nature since the same was accepted by the AO for a subsequent year. The AO argued that the comparables were not acceptable since they were different from functional and operational point of view. The Tribunal, ruled that the most appropriate comparison, under the facts and circumstances of the case, would be between the results achieved by the Taxpayer for the relevant assessment year and those earned by comparable uncontrolled entities during the corresponding period (provided such data is available for comparables), particularly where the set of comparable companies as well as the methodology have already been agreed to by the Department in the subsequent years.
