This case involves a dispute between SIS Live, New Delhi and the Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-3(1)(2), International Taxation, New Delhi, regarding the assessment of permanent establishment (PE) and related tax liabilities for the assessment years 2018-19 and 2019-20 under ITA No.2146/Del/2022.
The appellant challenges the final assessment orders passed under section 143(3) read with section 144C(13) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, concerning assessment years 2018-19 and 2019-20.

The tribunal’s decision partially allowed the appeal, setting a significant precedent on the interpretation of DTAA provisions and the assessment of foreign entities in India.
