We find that the assessee entered into an Agreement with its sister concern for the use of patent/brand in lieu of which it started making payment of royalty at the stipulated rate. Under similar circumstances, such royalty payment made by the assessee to its sister concern came to be accepted and allowed as deduction by the Revenue in earlier years.
