Deductions for payments to nonresidents not subject to tax in India under income tax treaties upheld

The Delhi High Court held that payments to nonresidents having no permanent establishment in India for the purchase of goods prior to 2014 were not subject to tax in India under the non-discrimination clauses under the India-United States and the India-Japan tax treaties. The taxpayer’s deductions for such payments were therefore upheld.
