The assessing officer (AO) exceeded jurisdiction by reclassifying income as fees for technical services (FTS) instead of royalty, contrary to the limited remand order from the Tribunal. The Tribunal's remand was restricted to examining chargeability under the Act/DTAA as royalty, not FTS. The AO should have sought an open remand from the Tribunal to consider FTS taxation.
