47 SOT 423Income Tax Appellate Tribunal2011#4366 most cited

What is Dresser-Rand India (P.) Ltd. v. Addl. CIT authority for?

The Transfer Pricing Officer (TPO) must determine the Arm's Length Price (ALP) of services and is not responsible for deciding whether a service was actually rendered or benefited the assessee; this latter determination is within the purview of the Assessing Officer (AO). The TPO's assessment of ALP should not be based on the perception that the assessee did not need the services due to existing internal expertise.
