Therefore the company is required to be considered as a company
dealing in software products and is into developing and selling the
products developed by it. Therefore we do not find any error in the
finding of the CIT (A). If we go through the decision cited by the
Ld.AR in the matter of Labvantage Solution P. Ltd (supra), wherein
the Tribunal considered Qualcomm India P. Ltd v. ACIT [ITA
5239/Del/2010, dt.10.06.2013] wherein the functions of Akshay
Software Technologies Ltd is mentioned as engaged in SAO and
remote infrastructure management software applications, as against
design work on embodied software, DSP an integrated circuit. The
functions as per the submission of the assessee as well as the annual
report is, Akshay Software Technologies Ltd is engaged in
providing professional services, procurement, installation and
support of ARP products and services in India. Therefore the
function as performed by the assessee as mentioned in the decision
of Labvantage (supra) for AY 2009-10 cannot be compared with
that of the functions performed by Akshay Software Technologies
Ltd in the AY 2013-14. Moreover the direction for inclusion of
Akshay Software Technologies Ltd was also rendered in the context
that in that case the TPO has included Akshay Software
Technologies Ltd as comparable in the AY 2007-08. In our
considered opinion the facts of the present case are different than
the facts narrated herein above in the matter of Labvantage (supra).
Therefore this company cannot be included in the list of
comparables. Accordingly this ground is rejected.
