27 July 2018 I am filing a return for an assessee who has earned income from salaries from Saudi Arabia. As Saudi arabia is tax free country, he did not pay any tax on that amount there. For filing return, where should I put the salary income which he received from Saudi Arabia in ITR-2?

28 July 2018 In case of non resident such salary income is not taxable in India, so no need put that income in ITR 2.

28 July 2018 Actually I have put the income in FSI page.. though the net effect on tax is same... So what should I do? Should I delete that from FSI page?
