AS NRI an Individual has earned interest income of Rs 240000 on his NRO-Saving Banik a/c and NRO-FDs during FY2024-25 (AY2025_26 ) i.e current assessment year. Bank has already deducted TDS @30% under Section 195 of ITax . He has no other income in India. Now following query -
1. Is this interest income is to be taxed at slab rates OR is to be taxed at Any Specific Special Rates ( if applicable).
2.Will he be entitled to refund of total TDS by filing ITR-2 ( as his India Income is well below Taxable Limit )
3. He is having a residential flat in India and which is self-occupied (Not Rented and No rental income ). Will he still be required to fill-up House Property Income Schedule OR can he skip filling this HP Income schedule as there is income under HP head.
Pls clarify pointwise and help to remove any doubt.
