The ITAT held that once TNMM benchmarking of logistics services had been accepted on a combined basis, the same cost elements could not be separately benchmarked again for royalty and GAM charges, so those additional transfer pricing adjustments were deleted.

On CSR-related donations, the Tribunal held that disallowance under Explanation 2 to section 37(1) does not bar deduction under section 80G where the donation otherwise qualifies, and allowed the claim. TDS/TCS credit and the section 43B issue were remanded for verification and fresh decision.
