No income tax applicable on receipt of software license fees from an Indian subsidiary as it was reimbursement of software licence fees paid by assessee to a third party, and, therefore, it could not constitute income taxable in the hands of assessee.

TDS under section 194H was not required to be deducted on discount allowed to distributors on sale of Set Top Box and hardware, recharge coupons vouchers because transaction between assessee company and distributor was on principal-to-principal basis and all the risk, loss, damages were transferred to distributor on delivery and it was a sale but not service to come within the ambit of definition of commission as defined under section 194H.
In the absence of any link between the assessee and the alleged admissions of the directors and brokers, human probability is being used as a vague and convenient medium for the department’s conjectures. No addition can be made on the basis of surmises, suspicion and conjectures. The burden of proving a transaction to be bogus has to be strictly discharged by adducing legal evidences, which would directly prove the fact of bogusness or establish circumstance unerringly and reasonably raising an interference to that effect.
