Royal Canin India Private ... vs Assistant Commissioner Of Income-Tax, ... on 28 April, 2025

12. Upon considering the submissions made by the assessee and analyzing the factual matrix and legal precedents cited, we find that the assessee has sufficiently demonstrated the availing and actual receipt of intra-group services through supporting documentation including invoices, agreements, and cost allocation statements.The payments made towards intra-group services were made without any markup and have been benchmarked alongside other international transactions, which collectively meet the arm's length principle.It is settled law that the necessity or commercial benefit of an expense cannot be questioned by the tax authorities when the transactions are genuine and undertaken for business purposes.The requirement of establishing a tangible commercial benefit (Benefit Test) does not emanate from the statutory provisions under the Act or under Transfer Pricing Regulations. We respectfully relied on EKL Appliances Ltd (supra) and Lumax Industries Ltd(supra) that the expenditures are genuine and fully related on the business purpose. The adjustment made on account of disallowance of payment of intra-group charges by the Ld. AO is unsustainable in law and on facts.In view of the above discussion, the adjustment made on account of disallowance of payment of intra-group charges amounting to Rs. 160,306,842/- is hereby directed to be deleted.
