Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle 16(2), New Delhi (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Assessing Officer’) in pursuance to the direction of the Ld. DRP, dated 07.09.2015 for assessment year 2011-12. 2. In the grounds of appeal
, the assessee has contested the transfer pricing adjustment.
3. At the outset, the learned counsel for the assessee, Sh. Anant Periwal, CA, submitted that the assessee has entered into a Bilateral Advanced Pricing Agreement (APA) with the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) on 29th March, 2019. The relevant APA is applicable to consecutive five years commencing from Financial Year (FY) 2014-15 to FY 2018-19 (relevant to AY 2015- 16 to AY 2019-20) with the roll back years commencing from FY 2010-11 to FY 2013-14 (relevant to AY 2011-12 to AY 2014-15) for the international transaction pertaining to the provision of IT enabled Services (ITeS). According to APA, Arm’s Length Price (ALP) of the covered transaction would be at Operating Profit margin (OP/OC) of 15% in each year of the APA and roll back period.
In view of the assessment year under consideration, being covered by the roll back period, the assessee has sought to withdraw the appeal.
Learned DR, on the other hand, could not controvert the contentions of the learned counsel.
As the assessee has withdrawn the appeal, we dismiss the same as infructuous.
In the result, the appeal of the assessee is dismissed. Order is pronounced in the open court on 11th April, 2019.
