I presume you will be non-resident in India.
Income which is received in India is also taxable in India, hence though you salary pertaining to service in Nepal, if it is credited in India - IT Authority might ask it is taxable in India on this principel
However in case of salary, it is always taxable in the country where you are working. So it is always better that you recieve salary in Nepal and thereafter you remit the same to India so no question is being raised for taxability of the same.
As your income is not taxable in India, no question of obtaining tax benefit arises.
