An Indian resident with a US bank account wishes to gift funds to their NRI son in the UAE. The discussion clarifies that gifting directly from a US bank account to a UAE account generally does not require filing Indian tax forms like 15CA/CB, as the remittance does not originate from India and is not taxable in India. However, it's noted that an Indian bank might request these forms, though it's not mandatory in this specific scenario.

My son resides in UAE as an NRI.
My question is whether I can send him gift directly to his Dubai account from US bank ? Do I need to file form 15 CA , 15CB ??
