TP Adjustment - Equipment would not have been imported at NIL price even in an independent scenario. Moreover, we do not find that the TPO has applied any method to benchmark the said transaction, which action of the TPO is in violation of Rule 10B of the Income Tax Rules. We find that while treating the purchase of capital goods as NIL, the TPO failed to provide any comparable data which would have suggested that the arm’s length price for the purchase of capital goods can be NIL. In our understanding, no third party would have sold such goods free of cost. In our considered opinion, arm’s length price could be lower or higher but cannot be NIL, as the goods have been imported. - AT
