I-3 - Taxation Act

Full text
13. Where a taxpayer carries on business through an employee, agent or mandatary, established in a particular place, who has general authority to contract for the employer or mandator or who has a stock of merchandise owned by such employer or mandator from which the employee, agent or mandatary regularly fills orders which the employee, agent or mandatary receives, the taxpayer is deemed to have an establishment in that place.
However, a taxpayer is not deemed to have an establishment for the sole reason that the taxpayer has business dealings through a commission agent, a broker or other independent agent or maintains an office or warehouse solely for the purchase of merchandise; similarly, the taxpayer is not deemed to have an establishment in a place solely because of the taxpayer’s control over a subsidiary carrying on business in that place.
