Legal services rendered by the partnership were treated as professional services, not fees for technical services; receipts from Indian engagements could not be taxed under section 9(1)(vii), and the related addition was deleted. The Tribunal also held that a UK partnership was fiscally transparent under UK law, so treaty protection under the India-UK DTAA extends only to the extent the income is taxed in the UK as income of a resident.
