A second final assessment order for the same assessment year was held impermissible because a final order had already been passed pursuant to DRP directions; the later order was quashed as a duplicate assessment. Transfer pricing issues on intra-group services and royalty benchmarking were not finally decided and were remitted to the TPO for fresh adjudication and computation in line with earlier-year directions. Support service expenditure was held allowable on consistency with prior years, and the disallowance was deleted. Amortization of telecom licence fee and the related interest claim were sent back for consequential action in accordance with law. Deduction under section 80G for CSR expenditure, refund of excess dividend distribution tax at treaty rate, and road tax and VAT on leased assets were all allowed.
