21 March 2017 Hi Experts,

An NRI has earned foreign income in USA and it has been taxed there according to US laws.
Further, some part of that already taxed income is received in India as INDIA Wages, Thus leading to Double taxation.

Q1. What part of Income will form part of Taxable income in INDIA.
Q2. How to claim tax relief.

Please help.

21 March 2017 1 As entire income is taxed in US no need of further taxation in India. Receipt of income in India will not attract tax in India.

21 March 2017 If an individual is non resident in India, only income which is accrue or arise in India is taxable.

In your case income which is received in India is taxable.

Lower of Tax paid in foreign on doubly tax income or tax paid on doubly taxed income in india can be claimed as relief
