Interpretation and Application of Permanent Establishment in India. According to Income Tax Act, Permanent Establishment is defined as a fixed place of business where the business of the enterprise is wholly or partly carried on that indicates a business connection between the foreign country and Indian country. The tax on foreign entities in India is based on different aspects such as place of income, source of income and presence of the entity in India. So, with the increase of global business presence in India, the concept of PE has gained importance. PE is used to determine the right of source state to tax business profits of the foreign enterprise. Article 7 states as “The profits of an enterprise of a Contracting State shall be taxable only in that State unless the enterprise carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein.”

The term “permanent establishment” means a fixed place of business through which the business of an enterprise is wholly or partly carried on.
