Omission of clause (i) of section 92BA was treated as having retrospective effect, so the reference to the TPO and the transfer pricing adjustment based on specified domestic transactions was held invalid and deleted.

Receipts such as car parking income, interest on fixed deposits, permission charges and licence fee were held to have a direct nexus with SEZ business and were treated as eligible for deduction under section 80IAB, making their reclassification as income from other sources unsustainable.
