Business and management consultancy charges closely linked to the assessee's operations were held to be benchmarked on an aggregated basis under TNMM, not by a separate ALP analysis, where receipt of services was supported by additional evidence; the matter was remitted for fresh examination by the TPO after considering that evidence.
