The branch office in India was treated as a continuation of the earlier liaison office, because the RBI approval and the nature of the upgraded arrangement showed an enlarged continuation of the existing presence rather than a new setup. On that basis, the Tribunal recorded that the branch office constituted a permanent establishment in India.
