I am working remotely in India for a foreign company which is based in Hong Kong. I receive my salary in USD. How will taxes be levied? My salary exceeds 10 LPA, so according to rule, service tax and income tax will be levied. My questions are: 1. How tax calculations will be there ? 2. What are the best practices to save as much tax as possible ? 3. Is there any concession to the one who is earning in USD or in any foreign currencies ?

1 No service tax payable if you receive the payment as salary. 2 Relief can be claimed in income tax for any tax paid on such income in Hong Kong. 3 No concession for earning in USD or in any foreign currency.
