Under MD 229 of 2025, 'Manufacturing of goods or materials' is a Qualifying Activity. Forensic auditors will verify the 'Substantial Transformation' test by reviewing electricity consumption, machinery depreciation schedules, and labor costs associated with the production line to ensure it is not a shell for excluded trading activities.
