    <title>Capital gains on share sale exempt under Article 13(4) India-Mauritius DTAA; residency and genuineness findings upheld</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93858</link>
    <description>ITAT allowed the taxpayer&#039;s appeal, holding that the capital gain on sale of shares qualifies for exemption under Article 13(4) of the India-Mauritius DTAA. The Tribunal found departmental allegations that the assessee was a mere paper company unsubstantiated, noting absence of cogent material to rebut the assessee&#039;s status as a tax resident of Mauritius. The Tribunal further observed that the AO&#039;s acceptance, by permitting carry-forward/set-off of long-term capital loss from an earlier year, undermined the denial of genuineness. Consequently, the AO&#039;s denial of treaty relief and invocation of domestic charging provisions was set aside and the assessee&#039;s claim for treaty exemption allowed.</description>
