Tribunal confirms equipment responsibility, orders re-evaluation for appeal errors. Hearing set for February.
The Tribunal upheld its decision on the responsibility for installation and commissioning of equipment, finding no error in its initial judgment. However, it acknowledged mistakes in adjudicating Grounds of appeal No. 6 and No. 7, recalling the order for re-evaluation. The parties were notified of the scheduled hearing for February 8, 2022, and the Miscellaneous Applications were partly allowed to address the errors identified in the assessment.
Issues Involved: 1. Incorrect and incomplete recording of the fact regarding responsibility for installation and commissioning of equipment. 2. Incorrect adjudication of Ground of appeal No. 6 - Attribution of profits. 3. Non-adjudication of Ground of Appeal No. 7 - Taxation of software as royalty.
Issue No. 1 - Responsibility for Installation and Commissioning: The Tribunal previously decided that the appellant's main purpose is not selling telecommunication equipment but commissioning it after customization. After reviewing the Miscellaneous Applications, the Tribunal found no error in its judgment under section 254(2) of the Act. Thus, the issue was dismissed.
Issue No. 2 - Incorrect Adjudication of Ground No. 6: The Tribunal considered and decided Issue No. 2 along with Issue No. 3, which was about the non-adjudication of Ground of Appeal No. 7. The Tribunal concluded that there was a mistake in not adjudicating these grounds properly. Therefore, the order was recalled for the relevant assessment years to re-adjudicate Ground Nos. 6 and 7 accurately. The appeals were scheduled for hearing on 08th February 2022, and the parties were informed accordingly. Consequently, all the Miscellaneous Applications were partly allowed.
This detailed analysis of the judgment highlights the Tribunal's reasoning and actions regarding each issue raised by the assessee.
