ITAT held in favour of the appellant that amounts received for rendering IT support and non-IT services are not taxable as Fee for Technical Services/Fee for Included Services under the Act or the India-UK DTAA for purposes of TDS u/s 195. The Tribunal affirmed the DRP's factual finding that "IT support" and "IT development" services were dissimilar and found no reliable evidence that technical knowledge, skill or know-how was made available to the associated enterprise in India or that the assessee enabled the AE to perform the services independently. Consequently the additions treating receipts as FTS/FIS were deleted and both grounds of appeal were allowed.
