Payments for a non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable licence to use software internally do not constitute royalty under Article 12(3) of the India-USA DTAA where the licensor retains copyright and proprietary rights and the user cannot commercially exploit, modify, sublicense, reverse engineer or copy the software except for backup.
