Selection of the most appropriate method for product replacement services supplied at nil sale price depends on the taxpayer's functional profile. Where the taxpayer acts only as a service provider and custodian of imported spares, without setting resale prices, selecting customers, or bearing attendant risks, TNMM applies rather than RPM for arm's-length price recomputation. Comparable selection for benchmarking those services is governed by settled transfer-pricing principles and does not raise a substantial question of law. The erstwhile five per cent tolerance range must be considered when recomputing the arm's-length price in accordance with applicable judicial principles.
