Sir, Need to know on the subject matter. Consider parent company is registered in Europe and have operations in India too. The basic product is sold directly between the customer in India and the parent company in Europe. The Indian company offers Installation support and also carries out warranty obligations.
Under this scenario, is withholding tax applicable for the sales made by the parent company to an Indian customer ? Is a PAN registration mandatory ? Also if the parent company applies for a PAN, will he also be liable to file returns in India?
