First check his residential status.
In this case the asssessee is resident because " He is providing his Services from India only".
In case of an ordinarily resident foreign as well as Indian Income, are taxable.
Q1. His income will be taxable in India.

Dear Mr Jindal,
The TDS Provisions, as applicable in US has to be applied by paying Company on payments. To my view, You should not bother for it.
About DTAA treaty, As India already have DTAA with US, the credit of Taxes paid / deducted (If any) in US has to be claimed in Indian TAX Return with suitable documentation.

As per Article 17 of India US Treaty Sitting Fees shall be taxable in both the countries. Hence the US parties may deduct TDS as per their law,but the credit of taxes paid in USA shall be available in India.

3. If the Amount so paid is deposit in the US Account of the Indian director after deduction of TAX by the US Company. and then if he transfers that amount to him Account will it have impact on his TAX liability in India , as the director is in India only and have never visited US ???
