The ITAT held that the recovery of expenses from AEs by the assessee, though labeled inadvertently as business support services in the debit note, was in fact a mere reimbursement without any mark-up, as explicitly indicated in the note. The assessee's entitlement to a mark-up arises only when business support services are invoiced, which was not the case here. Even if the recovery were recharacterized as business support services, the applicable mark-up of 10.18% falls within the arm's length range determined by the TPO, negating any need for transfer pricing adjustments. Consequently, the tribunal found no justification for any transfer pricing adjustment and ruled in favor of the assessee.
