. 18. For the assessee to deduct tax at source, it was necessary that the
payee had liability to pay any tax on such payment in India. So much is beyond
doubt by virtue of the decision of the Apex Court in the case of GE India
Technology Centre P.Ltd. vs. Commissioner of Income-Tax and another (supra).
The decision of the Karnataka High Court in the case of Commissioner of
Income-Tax and another vs. Samsung Electronics Co.Ltd. taking a contrary
view stands reversed 22. In the reasons recorded, there is not even a prima
facie belief or disclosure that on what basis, the Assessing Officer has formed
his reason to believe that such payment to the foreign supplier attracted tax in
India. In absence of any live link with the reasons recorded and the belief
formed, we are of the opinion that the notice was wholly invalid. 23. If, as
suggested by the counsel for the Revenue, we permit the Assessing Officer to
ascertain full facts and bring them on record, and then decide whether income
chargeable to tax had escaped assessment or not, we would permit the
Assessing Officer to reopen the assessment only for fishing enquiry.

acceptable. While tax evasion through the use of colourable
devices and by resorting to dubious methods and
subterfuges is not permissible, it cannot be said that all
tax planning is impermissible;
