Whether advisory consultancy receipts of a non-resident individual were taxable in India under domestic law despite treaty protection turned on the characterisation of services and the DTAA override. The tax authority treated the engagement as structured to avoid salary taxation and invoked "significant economic presence" to deem business income accruing in India on crossing the prescribed revenue threshold.
