How tax will be calculated if i am working from India for Japanese company


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
If you're working remotely from India for a Japanese company, your salary will likely be taxed in both India and Japan. However, you can claim double taxation relief in India. It's recommended to have your salary deposited into an Indian bank account. GST is generally not applicable as it falls under export of services, provided you register and submit a Letter of Undertaking (LUT).

18 April 2024 Thank you sir for your guidance

18 April 2024 please check whether the salary being paid to you is actually shown as salary or not by your employer. Are they deducting any payroll tax in Japan on it. Often, employers pay their foreign employees in form of professional fee. In such a case, there wont be any tax compliance required in Japan. Rest of the compliances will be as suggested by Seetharaman ji above.

19 April 2024 You are welcome..
