Dividend distribution tax on payments to a non-resident shareholder was examined against the India-Netherlands DTAA, with the Tribunal noting that treaty rate restriction may apply and that the matter required verification of the applicable treaty and domestic rate comparison; the issue was remitted to the Assessing Officer for fresh adjudication after due examination.
