NRI Income Tax Return Filing
Non-Resident Indians with income sourced from India — rental income, capital gains on property or shares, interest on NRO accounts, or salary for services rendered in India — are required to file an Indian Income Tax Return if their India-sourced income exceeds the basic exemption limit. NRI returns are more complex than resident returns — they involve DTAA analysis, separate tax rates for NRI income, TDS credit claims, and in some cases an application for lower TDS on future income. BSP Associate specialises in NRI ITR filing and ensures maximum DTAA benefit and minimum tax outgo.
