Article 12(4) of the India-China DTAA treats managerial, technical or consultancy services as fees for technical services only where a resident of one Contracting State renders them in the other Contracting State. Management and consultancy services supplied from China to an Indian associated enterprise through email, conference calls and video conferencing therefore fail the territorial condition where they are not physically rendered in India. The related fees are not taxable as fees for technical services under Article 12(4), and the additions for the relevant assessment years were set aside.
