the assessee was either an advertiser or act on behalf of some other
advertiser and has purchased space from the owner of search engine to
display its advertisements online. Therefore, the payment made by the
assessee to the owner of the search engine was considered to be
business receipt/business profit in the hands of the owner of search
engine, who is non-resident and in the absence of permanent
establishment (PE) in India, the business profits/business receipts
received by them were not chargeable to tax in India". The Ld.AR

submitted that this ratio applies to the assessee's case, as it acted on
behalf of its client, has purchased space from the owner of search
engine, who is a non-resident and it is not having a permanent
establishment in India also. Therefore, the business profits/receipts,
received by them were not chargeable to tax in India and hence there is
no case for the deduction of TDS. Further, she relied on the decision of
