It is pertinent to note that when the loan is provided by the syndicate and the assessee has not contributed to the loan amount then as regards the income of interest, the same cannot be attributed to the assessee for providing the services of the financial analysis of the borrowers, market condition and regulatory environment in India. Since the assessee has provided certain services for that arms length charges can be determined as per the provisions of transfer pricing regulation. The TPO as well as CIT(A) has not brought out any comparable for determination of the ALP but took the total income comprising interest as well as other fees charged by the foreign branches for allocation/attribution to the assessee. In this case, the ALP has not been determined by taking into consideration uncontrolled similar transaction. In our view, the interest cannot be taken into account for attribution of income towards service charges/fees and, therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the case only the fee charged by the foreign branches can be taken into consideration for making adjustment under transfer pricing provisions. Accordingly, we direct the AO/TPO to make adjustment in respect of the services performed by the assessee for foreign currency loan arranged for its existing clients by taking into account only the fee and other charges received by the foreign branches from the borrowers in question.

Sec. 92C & 260A of Income-tax Act, 1961—Transfer pricing— AO/TPO was directed to make adjustment in respect of the services performed by the assessee for foreign currency loan arranged for its existing clients by taking into account only the fee and other charges received by the foreign branches from the borrowers in question and since none of the parties have come out with the suitable comparables, therefore, the estimation made by the CIT(A) @ 20 per cent is just and proper, however, the same would be only in respect of the fee and charges other than interest received by the foreign branches—  Pr.
