Transfer Pricing: TPO cannot examine the necessity of, or rewrite, the transaction

CIT vs. EKL Applicances Ltd (Delhi High Court)
 The assessee entered into an agreement pursuant to which it paid brand fee/ royalty to an associated enterprise. The TPO disallowed the payment on the ground that as the assessee was regularly incurring huge losses, the know-how/ brand had not benefited the assessee and so the payment was not justified. This was reversed by the CIT (A) & Tribunal on the ground that as the payment was genuine, the TPO could not question commercial expediency. On appeal by the department, HELD dismissing the appeal
