- CESTAT ruled that Dell India’s marketing and support services to foreign affiliates qualify as export of services.
- The tribunal found that payments received in foreign exchange and the location of the service recipient determine export status.
- The Commissioner (Appeals) wrongly denied export status and CENVAT credit eligibility, exceeding the scope of the show-cause notice.
- The tribunal allowed Dell’s appeal and remanded the case only for verification of supporting documents.
