Tax Benefits Preserved: Presence of Permanent Establishment Doesn't Automatically Negate Special Interest Income Tax Treatment Under DTAA

April 9, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

ITAT held that mere presence of PE in India does not automatically disqualify special tax treatment under Article 11(2) of India-Japan DTAA for interest income from supplier's credit. No evidence demonstrated direct attribution of interest income to Indian PE, thus preserving taxpayer's entitlement to preferential tax rate. Revenue's contention rejected, with tribunal finding no distinguishing circumstances from prior assessments. Interest income remains taxable at special rates, affirming taxpayer's original tax treatment and interpretation of bilateral tax agreement provisions.
