Operational expenditure incurred to run an already deployed, revenue-generating telecom network retains its revenue character even when recorded as capital work-in-progress; book entries do not conclusively determine tax deductibility. Absent identification of an asset created or a nexus with acquisition or construction, deferral until quality-of-service targets are met does not make recurring operating costs capital.

Without Indian taxability or a permanent establishment, no withholding obligation arises.
