(1) Where a Malaysian company supplied technical personnel to the assessee (a Dutch company) on terms that the personnel would remain under the control of the assessee and that the Malaysian company would have no role to play in the execution of the Project and the question arose whether the recipient had a \u201csupervisory activities\u201d PE under Article 5 (4) (a) and the sums received was assessable as business profits (there being no provision for FTS in the India-Malaysia DTAA), HELD that as the Malaysian company\u2019s role ended with the supply of personnel, it could not be considered to be carrying on supervisory activities in India and there was no PE<\/strong>. Consequently, the business profits were not chargeable, s. 195 did not apply and disallowance u\/s 40(a)(i) in the hands of the payer was not permissible;<\/p>\n

(2) Where the employees of the assessee\u2019s foreign head office worked partly for the Indian Project and the question arose whether such part of the expenses as were allocable to the Indian project was hit by s. 44C of the Act, HELD s. 44C did not apply to all expenses incurred by the HO but was confined to \u201cexecutive and general administration\u201d expenses. Salary paid to technical personnel did not constitute either \u201cgeneral administrative\u201d expenses nor \u201cexecutive\u201d expenses<\/strong>. The latter term applies only to managerial personnel;<\/p>\n
