16 October 2010 The question in your query remains wheather the research services are covered under the definition of technical fees as per DTA between India and Singapore or not. Apperantly from the limited facts avaiable from your query it seems that it is marketing research, if yes, then it shall not be covered under the difintion of technical fees as per Indo-Singapore DTAA, thus not liable to tax in India. Though for a detailed analysis more facts would be required. If you wish you can write at taxindiaconnect@gmail.com

17 October 2010 In view of the Finance Act,2010 , now no need to look into the two situations referred in the querry if it is a "fee for technical service" which attracts section 195. The issue is to judge whether the payment for market reserch service comes under section 9(1)(vii) of the Income tax Act,1961.
