Sulla nozione di “royalty” e di “commissioni per servizi tecnici”, nonché sulla possibilità di configurare una S.O. alla luce delle definizioni contenute nell’art. 12, paragrafi 4 e 5 e nell’art. 5, paragrafo 3 della Convenzione contro la doppia imposizione tra il Governo Olandese e il Governo della Repubblica Indiana.

Abstract

The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal of Kolkata states that where a software is supplied together with the hardware, and it cannot operate independently from the latter, it is not taxable as "royalty” under the provisions of Article 12 (4) of the India - Netherlands Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement ("DTAA”). Moreover, the maintenance activities do not correspond to installation activities and, therefore, could not give raise to a PE under Article 5 (3) of the India - Netherlands DTAA.
