Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case and in law, the Hon’ble ITAT has erred in holding that both HCLT and the Respondent-assessee are jointly rendering services and therefore, it is a case of revenue sharing between HCLT and the Respondent assessee qua the foreign customers of HCLT?” 7.
