Transfer pricing comparability under TNMM: foreign exchange loss on ECB excluded from operating cost, and a functionally dissimilar comparator removed...
Fake AI-generated precedents vitiate adjudication, with unverified citations contaminating the decision-making process and undermining the rule of law...
The ITAT upheld the exclusion of certain comparables previously deemed functionally dissimilar to the assessee, as established in the coordinate bench's earlier decision. It held that Sagarsoft India Ltd. is not functionally comparable and must be excluded, while other identified comparables are functionally similar and should be included for determining the arm's length price (ALP). The matter was remanded to the TPO to recompute the ALP incorporating the revised list of comparables. The TPO is directed to exclude and include comparables as specified and recalculate the ALP accordingly. If the resultant ALP falls within the prescribed tolerance range of +/-1%, no transfer pricing adjustment shall be made.
