15 February 2018 One of my client is a foreign based company. They have a office in Dubai under a company name assume "A International" and they have a office here in India named "A Solutions" here it's a partnership firm and in Dubai it's a Proprietorship. And the partners are Indians only who reside in India. They generally bill me in USD and so if they give me a No PE certificate is that valid ? Pls help me out

15 February 2018 in my opinion they are two different entities. one is an individual and the other is a partnership firm. you may add a line in the no pe declaration stating that the income is not through or from a permanent establishment in India, if any.
