Delayed recovery of associated enterprise receivables was held...

Delayed recovery of associated enterprise receivables was held not to justify a working capital transfer pricing adjustment where the branch was debt-free, had no borrowings or interest claim, and its working capital needs were funded by head office, so no opportunity cost or borrowed-funds assumption was shown. The Tribunal therefore found no basis to interfere with deletion of the adjustment. Interest under section 234D was treated as consequential, and that ground was accepted on the assessee's concession.
