22 April 2014 Hi ashish ,

Though your friend is an NRI , he is working from india right ( mean services are being rendered from india ) ... so obviously its deemed to accrue or arise in india and hence taxable in india ... residential status of the individual is not important in this case ...

22 April 2014 I believe your question is whether the said income is taxable in US or not. Assuming his tax status in US is resident (given that his Indian tax status is Non-resident), he shall have to include whole of his Income in his US tax return.
