Global Account Management charges and Leaseline charges received by assessee were reviewed for tax classification. HC held that management charges qualify as Fees for Technical Services/Included Services (FTS/FIS) under Section 9(1)(vii), while Leaseline charges constitute Royalty under Section 9(1)(vi). Regarding Freight Logistic Support services, HC determined these do not qualify as FTS/FIS since customs clearance rules are publicly available information, not specialized knowledge.
