The ITAT followed its co-ordinate Bench rulings in the assessee's own earlier years on materially identical facts and found no change in law or evidence to justify a different view. It held that the presence of related entities in India and the support services they rendered did not create a fixed place, service or dependent agent PE, or a business connection, so reinsurance and retrocession receipts were not taxable in India as business profits under the treaty. It also held that the support service receipts failed the make-available test because no technical knowledge, skill, know-how or process was transferred for independent future use, and the amounts were therefore not taxable as fees for technical services. The impugned additions were deleted.
