Taxability of income in India - Taxability as Royalty or FTS - The tribunal systematically addressed the taxability of each type of service. It concluded that the services provided did not qualify as royalty or FTS under the India-Netherlands tax treaty because they did not make any technology, knowledge, experience, or skills "available" to the Indian group companies in such a manner that would enable them to perform these services independently in the future.
