Income deemed to accrue or arise in India - Supply of software - ‘royalty’ - Shrink wrap software or customized software - Drawing parallels with that decision and the unchanged facts and circumstances of the current assessment year, the Tribunal held that the incomes from software licensing and maintenance services should not be taxed as royalty.
