Statutory Compliance

Why Non-Resident Indians Must File an Indian ITR

Under Indian Income Tax law, an NRI is taxed strictly on income accrued, arisen, or received in India. Here is why proactive filing protects your offshore wealth.

Claim Stuck TDS Refunds

Banks and buyers deduct peak 30%+ TDS on NRO interest and property transactions under Section 195. Filing ITR-2 is the ONLY statutory way to claim full refunds credited to your bank account with interest.

Capital Gains Optimization

Sold Indian mutual funds, shares, or property? Our CAs calculate accurate grandfathering, indexation under Section 112, and set off short-term/long-term capital losses to carry forward for 8 years.

Rental Income & Section 24

Maximize the standard 30% statutory deduction under Section 24(a), municipal taxes paid, and home loan interest under Section 24(b) on your Indian rental properties to minimize taxable income.

DTAA Relief & Form 67

Prevent double taxation on the same income across India and your country of residence (USA, UK, UAE, Singapore) by filing electronic Form 67 to claim statutory Foreign Tax Credits (FTC).

Notice Scrutiny & 139(9) Defense

Avoid automated defective notices under Section 139(9) or high-value transaction scrutiny under Section 148 driven by AIS/TIS property, mutual fund, and foreign remittance data matches.

7-Year Audit-Proof Trail

Clean ITR compliance creates a verifiable financial pedigree essential for applying for Form 13 lower TDS certificates, Form 15CB foreign remittances, and repatriation under FEMA.

Frequently Asked Questions

NRI Income Tax Filing FAQ

Yes. An NRI must file an Indian Income Tax Return if their gross total income accrued or received in India (from rent, capital gains, interest, or consultancy) exceeds the basic exemption limit (₹2.5 Lakhs under the Old Regime or ₹3.0 Lakhs under the New Regime), or if they want to claim a refund of TDS deducted on NRO fixed deposits or property sales.

No. Under statutory e-filing rules, Non-Residents are strictly prohibited from filing ITR-1 (Sahaj) or ITR-4 (Sugam). Attempting to file ITR-1 results in an automatic defective return notice under Section 139(9). NRIs must file ITR-2 (for salary, rental, capital gains, and other income) or ITR-3 (if they have business or professional income in India).

Indian banks automatically deduct 30% flat TDS plus cess on NRO interest under Section 195. If your total Indian taxable income is below the exemption threshold or falls into lower slab rates, our CAs file your ITR-2 claiming the full credit of TDS reflected in your Form 26AS/AIS. The refund is credited directly to your bank account with interest under Section 244A.

No. As long as you maintain Non-Resident (NR) status under Section 6 of the Income-tax Act, your genuine foreign income (salary earned abroad, overseas capital gains, foreign dividends) is completely exempt from Indian taxation. Furthermore, NRIs are exempt from disclosing foreign assets in Schedule FA.
