09 September 2021 Dear Sir,

One of my client is an NRI person and wants to apply for lower tds deduction certificate for Nil deduction of TDS on rent for his house property in India.

He is only having rental house property income in India amounting to Rs. 35,000/- per month from October, 2021. He has not filed any Income tax return in India from the past 20 years since he is an NRI.

Please help on this issue whether can he get Nil tds deduction certificate.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

09 September 2021 Yes, online application can be done but since he is an NRI he doesn't have any past Income tax returns filed in India. Will the assessing officer solely give Nil Tds Certificate based on the online application.

10 September 2021 When there was no income, so the return filing was not mandatory; still you can try.

10 September 2021 Ok, just one last question. Do I need any certification from a Chartered Accountant for giving this service with respect to filing Form 15CA and while applying for Lower TDS certificate.

Also whether Form 15CB is applicable for rent payment to NRI
