Persistent Systems Ltd. was rejected as a comparable under TNMM because the assessee was a captive software development service provider, while Persistent operated an IP-led product development model with product, licensing and other mixed revenues, different risk profile, and no segmental break-up. Akshay Software Technologies Ltd., Cigniti Technologies Ltd. and Evoke Technologies Pvt. Ltd. were accepted as comparables because their software-related activities, quantitative filters and reliable financial data supported inclusion.

Both appeals were partly allowed.
