Question whether fees for technical services paid to a foreign resident are taxable in India turns on the source of income (where the contract was negotiated and executed), not merely receipt in India; factual dispute exists whether an Indian purchase order reflects an Indian source or whether the contract and performance were effected by an overseas branch, and the assessee failed to place conclusive evidence.
