Income tax for indian employees working in foreign embassy

2659 views 2 replies

Hi,

Need some clarification regarding income tax. Is Indian employee working in foreign embassy in New Delhi liable to pay income tax on salary? Please note that the embassy does not deduct TDS from salaries of its indian employees nor give form 16. And whether the employee is liable to file ITR? Also please clarify Section 10(6)(ii) in relation to this question.

Thanks

No, it is exempt income. And yes, you have to file ITR-2 (having exempt income more than Rs. 5,000).

Let me clarify the above question. For Instance, Indian citizen (Ordinary Resident) working in Belgium Embassy in New Delhi.
