Taxability of capital gains arising on sale of equity shares/CCDs by a Singaporeincorporated subsidiary was examined under the India-Singapore DTAA. The tribunal found the entity to be a shell/conduit lacking commercial substance-no office, employees, or operating costs-and held that mere possession of a tax residency certificate is insufficient.
