Where transfer pricing analysis was applied uniformly to all international transactions and no separate benchmarking was carried out for non-US based AE transactions, the Tribunal treated the BAPA margin as a reliable persuasive benchmark. It noted that the Revenue failed to show any material difference in the FAR profile of the non-US transactions from those covered by the BAPA.
