....incurring substantial part of its expenses towards development which distinguishes it from other companies as the benefit of the expenditure would accrue for many years. 3. The DRP erred in directing to provide working capital adjustment without appreciating the fact that when companies have multiple segments providing working capital adjustment would result in factually incorrect results and that it would not be feasible to accept the figures at face value as appearing in the balance sheet in the absence of precise characterization as there is no uniformity in respect of the definition of receivables and payables as these are categorized differently by each company. 4. The DRP erred in directing to provide working capital adjustment without appreciating the fact that according to the OECD commentary working capital benefit cannot be given automatically but only in situations where there is a greater chance of increasing the comparability levels. 5.

The range of activities performed by APIPL include development of synthetic chemical processes in the field of APIs, development and preparation of Drug Master Filed (DMF's), and analytical services like stability studies, validation studies, analytical method development. Hence, the assessee rendered R & D services in this segment. 04.

It can thus be seen from the above that the activities of the assessee in the present case and that of Tevapharm Pvt.

The Tribunal examined the comparability of these companies to a company engaged in contract research & development and came to the following conclusion:- "1. ......... 3.

DR in the written submissions has mentioned as under : During the hearing of the above appeals on 8/01/2019, Hon'ble Bench directed the undersigned to submit a note on the specific arguments made on behalf of the revenue in the course of hearing with regard to admissibility of deduction u/s 10B in respect of profits derived from R&D services purportedly carried out by the above assessee from its SEZ unit and the relevant provisions of the SEZ Act. In compliance thereto, the following submissions are made for kind consideration of the Hon'ble Bench : 1) The learned AR heavily relied on the jurisdictional ITAT's decision in the case of DClT vs Syngene International Ltd [2015] 64 taxmann.com 222 (Bangalore-Trib.) to argue that the assessee is eligible for deduction u/s 10B which the AC has denied for various reasons.

It is important to note that in the original letter of approval dated 16.04.2004 issued by DC, Cochin SEZ, the items of manufacture approved were Chloro Benzene and 3 other items whereas the item of manufacture was amended vide letter dated 31.08.2004 as Research & Development centre with an associated production facility of Chloro Benzene and other chemicals. Here it is relevant to point out that as per provisions of section 15 of the SEZ Act 2005, any unit intending to set up the unit in a SEZ shall submit a proposal to the concerned DC who shall put it up to the Approval Committee and upon approval by the Committee, grant a Letter of approval specifying the authorised operations. As per rule 19 of SEZ Rules also, the DC shall specify the items of manufacture or particulars of service activity. The Letter of Approval assumes significance because any person running an approved unit within SEZ can only conduct authorised operations viz., items of manufacture specified therein so as avail the benefits under various acts. Viewed from this angle, the Letter of Approval dated 31.08.2004 cannot be interpreted to mean that approval was given for a ....

.... therefore cannot be compared with that of the assessee. 09. We have heard the rival contentions and perused the material on record. Though this company was considered by the Tribunal in the case of sister concern (supra), but the finding recorded by the Tribunal in the said case was on the basis of the order passed by the Tribunal for the earlier assessment year in the case of the assessee. If we examine the expenditure incurred by Celestial Labs Ltd, on research and development in this year then it is clear that the R & D expenditure at a percentage of the total turnover was only 4.40% and the balance was on account of various heads mentioned under the expenditure mentioned at page 683 of the paper book. Moreover if we look into the profile of Celestial Labs Ltd, then it is clear that this company is into development of molecule to treat Leucoderma and was in the process of filing IPR for the said research. Thus this company is not only into R & D, but is also into development of various IPRs, whereas the assessee is only into R & D of pharmaceutical products and is not into development of IPRs on research done by it. We also find that this company Celestial Labs Ltd, has also....

The functions performed by Oil Field Instrumentation (India) Ltd, during the current year continues to be the same as it was doing in the earlier year 2008-09, which was so mentioned by the Tribunal, though in the matter of sister concern (supra). As there is neither change in profile or the functions, therefore following the decision of the coordinate bench in the matter of the sister concern of the assessee, we direct the TPO to exclude this company from the list of comparables. 13. Ground no.2 of the Revenue appeal pertains to the inclusion of Max Neeman Medical Intl. Ltd. It was the case of the Ld. DR that the TPO has excluded this comparable on the ground that this company has been incurring loss at the enterprise loss and is a consistent loss making company. Therefore it was submitted that the DRP had erred in taking it on the basis of the segmental results / profit shown by this company for one year. 14. Per contra, the Ld.

Further the assessee also recorded income from other sources (consisting of interest on deposits) amounting to INR 19.31 lacs. The net taxable income of the Company was arrived at INR 17.93 lacs after set-off of brought forward losses. Subsequently, the Appellant revised its return of income for FY 2008-09 on September 27, 2010. In the return of income filed, the Appellant declared a net income from business and profession of INR 526.33 lacs after claiming deduction under section 10B of the Act amounting to INR 119.45 lacs for both the manufacturing activities and the R&D activities. Further, the Appellant also recorded income f am other sources (consisting of interest on deposits) amounting to INR 19.31 lacs. The net taxable income of the Appellant was arrived at INR 38.58 lacs after set-off of brought forward losses. In the revised return filed by the Appellant, the deduction under 10B of the Act was calculated by taking 'manufacturing' and 'R&D' activities as separate business undertakings.

The AO in the draft assessment order had denied the benefit of 10B and the reason recorded by the AO were mentioned in para 5.7 to 5.9 of the order, which is as under : 5.7 It is explicit from the provisions that such a deduction is only for the newly, export-oriented undertakings that manufactures or produces any items / computer software. By no stretch of imagination can R&1) services tantamount to manufacture or production of an article. But in zeal to claim the maximum possible deduction the assessee has made a false claim. It has been attempted by bringing the non-eligible business profits into the fold of eligible profits. The assessee has gone to such an extent that even though the F.56G does not support this illegal claim, the assessee has revised the return seeking the extra, undue claim. 5.8 The Board's Approval submitted by the assesee was closely scrutinized. It is seen that the date of issue of the Approval was 25/03/2011. To put things in perspective, effectively only from the FY 2011-12 (AY 2012-13) the assessee would be eligible for the claim of deduction. However the assessee has made the claim in....

On a careful perusal of the provisions of section 10B and CBDT's Notification No. SO 890(E) dated 26.09.2000, we are of the view that what was sought to be covered by clause (b) of Explanation 2 to section 1011 is in the context of 'computer software" and in view of the nile of ejusdein generis, they cannot mean anything else than "computer software". Hence, the assessee's reliance upon clause (h) of Explanation 2 to section 10B is Far-fetched and cannot be accepted. Further, the activities carried on the assessee clearly fell within two distinct business segments - one is Manufacturing of APIs and the other is contract R&D services. Just because the APIs were manufactured for the Apotex Group and also at the same time the R&D services were provided to this group on contract basis, the two segments cannot be considered together as to have constituted a coherent or integral whole so as to qualify for deduction of profits and gains of both the s....

This view was upheld by Hon'ble Calcutta High Court. v) Further, according to Webster Dictionary, meaning of the word 'thing' is the product of work or activity which in Appellant's case is the research reports/documentation. In this regards, the Appellant relies on the decision of Rajasthan High Court in case of CIT vs. Trinity Hospital (86 Taxman 127) wherein the high court while dealing with issue of allowability of investment allowances with respect to x-ray machine has held that the graphs obtained from these machines, which are the result of efforts or activity, could be said to be a 'thing'. vi) In view of the above, the Appellant submits that the research documentations/ reports are produced by the efforts put in by the employees of the Appellant and hence, same amounts to....

Therefore, given the fact that the data exported (i.e. the report) is largely a summary of the research data which are customized, it should fall under the category 'customized electronic data' as envisaged in clause (i)(b) of explanation 2 to section 10B of the Act and therefore, the benefit of section 10B should be given to the Appellant. xvi) Further, it may kindly be noted that the AO in subsequent years (i.e. AY 2010-11, & AY 2011-12) has not denied the deduction u/s.10B on the ground that R&D activities does not amount to manufacturing/ producing of article / things. xvii) In view of the above, the Appellant most humbly submits that deduction u/s. 10B w.r.t.

....tegral of each other is correct, then there was no necessity for the assessee to mention separately about the "Aricle Or Thing Manufactured" and " R & D" separately for the purpose of claiming the export turnover. The assessee itself was convinced that both the activities are distinct and separate and therefore the assessee has given two separate export turnovers in respect of each of the activity. 34. In our understanding, as mentioned hereinabove also, the manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and intermediaries and carrying out of R & D for the same AE{ as a contract service provider}, are two distinct activities and therefore the assessee should have taken two distinct approval from the DC by filing two separate project reports for carrying out these two activities. Only one project report in respect of manufacture of API and others for chlorobenzene and other chemicals were submitted and therefore there was no independent permission for carrying out the R & D activities of pharmaceuticals for AE. 42.
