14 August 2010 Transfer Pricing Regulations ("TPR") are applicable to the all enterprises that enter into an'International Transaction' with an 'Associated Enterprise'. Therefore, generally it applies to allcross border transactions entered into between associated enterprises. It even applies to transactions involving a mere book entry having no apparent financial impact. The aim is to arrive at the comparable price as available to any unrelated party in open market conditionsand is known as the Arm's Length Price(ALP).
Documentation
The provisions contained in the TPR are exhaustive as far as the maintenance of
documentation is concerned. This includes background information on the commercial
environment in which the transaction has been entered into, information regarding the international transaction entered into, the analysis carried out to select the most appropriate method and to identify comparable transactions, and the actual working out of the ALP of the transaction. This also includes report of an accountant certifying that the ALP has been
determined in accordance with the TPR and that prescribed documentation has been
maintained. This documentation should be retained for a minimum period of 8 years.
