There is no exclusive list of services which shall be covered under Fee for technical d
service but as per the Explanation 2 to section 9 (1) (vii).

‘Fees for technical services’ means any consideration for the rendering of any managerial, consultancy, or technical services. It includes the provision of services of technical or other personnel. The term ‘Fees for technical services’ doesn’t include consideration for any construction, mining, assembly or like project undertaken by the recipient or consideration chargeable under the head ‘salary’.

1. Professional fees

2. Fees for technical services

3. Remuneration paid to directors excluding salary (For e.g., sitting fees to attend board meetings)
